Corzine's  Bed  Tax 

Could  Spell  Problems 
For  Medical  Center 

A  relatively  small  line  item  in  Gov. 
Jon  Corzme's  budget  address  two 
weeks  ago  outlining  an  effort  to  capture 
increased  matches  in  health  care  from 
the  federal  government  has  prompted 
health  care  officials  throughout  the 
state,  including  those  from  the  Prince* 
ton  HealthCare  System,  to  envision  a 
bleak  picture  of  overly-taxed  facilities 
with  little  chance  of  survival,  which 
could  prove  disastrous  to  the  state's 
suburban  hospitals 

In  his  March  21  address.  Mr  Corzme 
proposed  a  S620-per  hospital  bed  tax 
that  would  bring  the  state  approximately 
$430  million  per  year,  with  about  $215 
million  used  for  state  expenses  with  the 
remainder  used  to  qualify  for  a  Federal 
match  from  Medicaid  to  be  tunneled 
back  to  the  state's  hospitals 

In  short,  the  governor  hopes  to  raise 
a  certain  amount  of  money,  double  It 
with  the  federal  match,  keep  the  gen- 
eral match  to  help  balance  the  budget 
and  then  return  what  has  been  col- 
lected back  to  the  hospitals,  but  it  has 
to  be  returned  on  the  basis  of  Medicaid 
cases 

What  has  caused  an  uproar  from 
suburban  hospitals  throughout  the 
state  and  the  New  Jersey  Hospital  As- 
sociation (NJHA).  is  that,  by  and  large, 
only  hospitals  with  a  large  number  of 
uninsured  patients  would  see  any  kind 
of  payday,  leaving  hospitals  covering 
largely  insured  demographics,  like  the 
University  Medical  Center  at  Princeton 
(UMCP).  in  the  dark.  and.  according  to 
some  officials,  in  danger 

Gary  Carter,  the  president  of  the 
NJHA.  told  the  Associated  Press  after 
Mr  Corzme's  address,  that  "worst  pan 
is  the  fact  that  we  are  going  to  be  taxed 
to  provide  something  we  are  mandated 
to  do. 

'It  s  a  really  bad  idea  * 

In  Princeton,  with  the  hospital's  par- 
ent company.  Princeton  HealthCare 
System,  seeking  to  buikj  a  $350  mil- 
lion facility  m  Piamsboro.  the  prospect 
is  troublesome,  and  the  stakes  are 
high,  potentially  preventing  a  move,  or 
worse 

'It  could  severely  jeopardize  tr . 
ture  of  our  hospital."  said  Pam  H- 
vice  president  for  Government  and 
Community  Affairs  for  PHCS  The  slale

LET  THE  BUILDING  BEGIN:  After  donating  some  books  of  his  own  to  the  Book  Lovee  on  Firestone  Plata  last  week, 
Pulitier-prize-winning  poet  and  Princeton  faculty  member  CK.  Williams  said  that  the  Katrine  crisis  had  begun  slip 
ping  out  of  reality"  because  of  an  administration  that  gives  the  absolute  minimum  of  political  attention"  to  the 
devastation  while  the  people  of  New  Orleans  are  asking.  "Where  Is  our  city?"  Two  of  Princeton  University's  other 
Pulitzer  prize  winning  poets.  Yusuf  Nomunyakaa  and  Paul  Moldoee.  were  efee  en  hand  to  support  the  itudent  led 
Katrina  Project.  See  the  story  on  page  7.

or  4  cents  per  $100  of  assessed  value

sessed at  $400,000  would  see  taxes  go

Kushner's  running  of  the  IDEAS  Center

Eight  Degrees  of  Presentation 
As  Firms  Brainstorm  Merwick 


Following  an  intense  three-day  ses- 
sion studying  the  nine-acre  Bayard 
Lane  tract  that  houses  the  Merwick 
Care  Center,  one  thing  is  clea-

A  Park  as  Good  as  a  Quiet  Backyard 
Could  Be  Due  for  a  Needed  Facelift 


Harrison  Street  Pari.  tr*» 
woodsy,  slightly  tired,  but 
serene  oasis  In  the  heart  of 
Jugtown  could  soon  be 
prepped  for  a  makeover,  but 
how  to  achieve  that  goal  still 
remains  unanswered. 

Princeton  Borough  Council 
last  night  revived  public  dis- 
cussions on  hou  to  rehabili- 
tate the  pari,  that  by  most 
reports,  dates  to  1952.  when 
Princeton  University  sold  the 
land  to  the  Borough,  and  has 
since  served  as  a  beloved 
resource  for  residents  of  sur- 
rounding neighborhoods. 

"We  had  budgeted  some 
modest  money  a  couple  of 
years  ago.  but  now  we're  pick- 
ing the  ball  back  up."  said 
Borough  Administrator  Robert 
Bruschi.  who  addressed  trw 
members  of  Council  after 
Town  Topics  went  to  press. 
"We  decided  to  start  moving 
on  this  thing  again."  he  said, 
adding  that  constructive  dia- 
logue with  residents  o(  nearby 
t'ts  had  actively  begun  dh 
cussions  on  the  issue. 

"We  met   aid  nfJ   oi

the    standard    process    was. 
Mr.  Brusdu  v., id 

But  the  residents 
aegis  of  an  unofficial  Harrison 
Street  Park  task  force,  had  a 
slightly  different  brOCOT  in 
mind,  one  to  which  the  Bor- 
ough agreed. 

Residents  encouraged  Mr. 
Bruschi  to  advise  Council  to 
hire  someone  with  n.itnr.ilisi 
expertise  to  go  through  the 
park,  look  at  what  is  there 
from  an  environmental  stand- 
point, considering  where  m 
tain  things  could  or  should  go. 


and  what  could  be  appftcabk  mb  never  rally  retrofitted  to

about  25  other  park-area  res*-  big  tame,  one  that  could  cost 
dents,  said  the  aim  would  uro- 
matery  be  to  plant  more  trees, 
create  habitats  for  different 
types  of  wild  life,  and  think 
about  the  park  In  terms  of  rec- 
reation.

On   Saturday   morning. 
March  25,  the  Squad  re- 
sponded to  a  dorm  room 
for  a   25-year-old  female 
with  a  head  laceration.  The 
patient  reported  she  passed 
out  while  taking  a  shower, 
then  woke  up  and  sat  down 
in  the  bathroom,  where  she 
passed  out  again.  When  she 
regained  consciousness  the 
second  time,  she  was  lying 
in  a  pool  of  blood  from  a  cut 
to  her  forehead.  She  then 
went  to  her  room  and  called 
911.  The  laceration  was 
bandaged,  and  rescuers  im- 
mobilized the  patient's  head, 
neck  and  spine  before  trans- 
porting her  to  the  University 
Medical  Center  at  Princeton 
(UMCP). 

On  Wednesday  afternoon, 
March  29,  the  Squad  re- 
sponded to  an  87-year-old 
woman  who  was  complain- 
ing of  chest  pain.  The  pa- 
tient reported  she  had  just 
been  released  from  the  hos- 
pital with  the  pain  and  did 
not  want  to  return.  Shortly 
afterwards, she   suddenly 
stopped  talking  and  went 
into  cardiac  arrest.  Rescu- 
ers immediately  began  CPR 
and  used  the  defibrillator  to 
shock  the  patient's  heart,  re- 
gaining a  heartbeat.  After  a 
few  moments,  however,  the 
patient  was  back  in  cardiac 
arrest.  Repeated  defibrilla- 
tions returned  pulses  briefly, 
but  eventually  the  shocks 
were  not  able  to  restart  the 
patient's  heart,  and  she  was 
pronounced  dead  at  UMCP. 
On    Friday,    March   31, 
the  Squad  responded  for  a 
43-  year-old  man  in  cardiac 
arrest.    The  patient's   wife 
reported  she  was  driving 
when  her  husband  stopped 
breathing  and  turned  blue. 
After  pulling  over  and  dial- 
ing 91 1 ,  a  passing  physician 
began  CPR  until  officers 
from  the  Princeton  Borough 
Police  Department  arrived 
on  scene  and  applied  their 
Automatic  External  Defi- 
brillator. The  Squad  arrived 
moments  later  and  found  the 
patient  with  a  strong  radial 
pulse  and  pale  skin  tone,  but 
still  unconscious.  The  Squad 
continued  breathing  for  the 
patient  with  pure  oxygen  and 
monitored  his  vital  signs  dur- 
ing transport  to  UMCP.

TOWN  TALK® 

A  forum  for  Princeton  residents  to  express 
opinions  about  local  and  national  issues. 

Question  of  the  Week: 

"What  are  your  views  on  the  proposed 
immigration  reform?" 


"I   support   the   general   provisions   of  the   McCain- 
Kennedy  Bill  which  was  incorporated,  at  least  in  its 
main  points,  in  the  Judiciary  Committee's  bill  that  was 
passed  by  the  Senate  last  week."  —Maria  Juega,  Chair, 
Latin  American  Legal  Defense  Fund,  Grover  Avenue 


I 


"I  think  it  is  very  necessary  to  support  the  people  who 
are  here  illegally,  so  that  they  can  eventually  become 
legal  residents.  It  is  important  for  the  U.S.  and  the 
Hispanic  countries  to  know  who  are  in  the  country 
—  who  are  supporting  the  economy  of  the  country  and 
who  are  not."  —Maria  Moreno,  Billy  Ellis  Lane 


"The  proposed  changes  in  the  immigration  law  provides 
an  opportunity  for  politicians  to  engage  in  demagoguery 
and  pandering,  which  we  are  hearing  a  lot  of.  In  the 
end,  there  will  be  a  compromise,  and  the  reason  is  that 
you  cannot  deport  11  million  undocumented  aliens. 
They  are  needed  by  our  agricultural  and  industrial 
sectors.  In  the  meantime,  there  is  a  lot  of  pain  being 
inflicted  by  persons,  including  people  in  Princeton, 
who  under  threat  of  deportation  lose  their  homes, 
their  drivers'  licenses,  their  jobs,  their  children,  their 
spouses,  their  way  of  life.  In  some  cases  they  have 
been  here  for  20  years.  It's  shameful  and  it  is  sad." 
—Roger  Martindell,  member, 
Princeton  Borough  Council,  Prospect  Avenue 


"Frankly  I  am  against  the  Sensenbrenner-King  bill  (the 
House  version  of  the  reform  bill)  because  it  separates 
families  of  immigrants  with  children  who  are  born 
here  Also,  it's  not  right  to  make  criminals  of  people 
who  use  the  services  of  undocumented  persons." 

—Toshi  Abe,  Walnut  Lane

Mr.    Turner,    eight    NOPL 


branches  were  a  total  loss, 
and  five  other  branches  expe- 
rienced substantial  damage, 
but  have  been  able  to  reopen, 
despite  operating  with  a  staff

After  expressing  gratitude  to 
the  Rescue  Mission  of  Tren- 
ton, Green  Owl  Media,  and,  in 
particular,  to  the  University 
for  its  cooperation,  with  a  spe- 
cial thanks  to  Grounds  and 
Building  Maintenance,  he 
announced  that  the  Princeton- 
New  Orleans  Barbara  Boggs 
Sigmund  Community  Alliance 
bearing  the  name  of  the  late 
Princeton  Borough  mayor  has 
helped  launch  the  effort  with 
an  $8,000  donation. 

The  American  Library  Asso- 
ciation (ALA)  is  sponsoring  the 
tiative,  along  with  the  New 


of  "castles  blown  up/Tribes 
on  the  march,  planets  in 
motion." 

After    Princeton    faculty 
member    Gabe    Hudson,    a 
former   Marine   rifleman   and 
author  of  a  work  of  fiction 
about  the  Gulf  War,  addressed 
the    gathering,    Louisiana 
native    Yusuf    Komunyakaa, 
another  of  Princeton's  three 
Pulitzer-prize-winning    poets 
present,  read  from  his  work- 
in-progress  entitled  "Katriina." 
Both  also  made  book  dona- 
tions, as  did  the  third  Pulitzer- 
prize  winner,  Paul  Muldoon, 
who  was  recently  named  chair 
of  the  new  University  Center 
for  the  Creative  and  Perform- 
ing Arts.  In  addition  to  his 
donation,    Mr.    Muldoon   had 
offered  the  student  organizers 
a  box  of  books  from  the  back 
of  his  car.  After  remarking  on 
the    importance    of    getting 
what   lies    beyond    the    fore- 
ground  into   perspective,    he 
read  his  poem  about  reaching 
Into  a  fissure  in  the  wall  of  his 
home  near  the  Delaware  & 
Raritan  canal  and  making  con- 
tact with  the  time  when  Irish 
immigrants  were  building  tile 
canal,  the  same  men,  he  said, 
who    also    helped   build    the 
levees  In  New  Orleans. 

Though  John  McPhee  could 
not  be  present,  he  donated 
two  of  his  books,  School  of 
Nature  and  Annals  of  the 
Future.

Where  Is  Our  City? 

After  donating  two  of  his 
own  books  and  one  by  Chang- 
rae  Lee,  Pulitzer-prize-winning 
Princeton  poet  C.K.  Williams 
spoke  of  how  the  Katrina  cri- 
sis had  begun  slipping  "out  of 
reality"  because  of  an  admin- 
istration that  spends  "$500 
billion"  on  the  war  and  gives 
"the  absolute  minimum  of 
political  attention"  to  the  dev- 
astation of  New  Orleans  while 
the  people  are  asking,  "Where 
is  our  city?" 

Poet  Susan  Wheeler

Library  of  America  and  read  a 
poem  of  her  own  along  with

Borough  Council  Introduces  Budget,  ^pah^elonst^ction, "had 
Door  Le/*  Open  /or  Discussion  £«  «^jjj«^ 

Princeton  Borough  Council  opened  a  discussion  launched   about  $3.5  million  per  year, 
swiftly    introduced    Its    $22.9  two  years  ago  concerning  rais-       jhe  Borough  also  follows  a 
million   operating   budget   for  ing  parking  meter  rates:  "Ev-    mu]tj-year  budgeting  approach 
2006  last  Tuesday,  but  mem-  ery   dollar  we   get   from   the   mat  forecasts  future  budgets 
bers  of  the  governing  body  left   meters   is  a   dollar  we  don't 
the    door    open    for    debate  have    to    take    from    the 

taxpayer." 
The  increase  follows  a  2005 

five-cent  increase  and  a  2004 

12-cent  jump.   However,  Mr. 


open 
before  the  measure  goes  up 
for  a  public  hearing  and  vote 
on  May  2. 
The  budget,  representing  a 


well  in  advance  of  introduc- 
tion. The  2007  budget  fore- 
cast is  expected  prior  to  May 
2  following  Finance  Commit- 
tee review. 
Councilman  Andrew  Koontz 


five-cent  increase  to  94  cents   Bruschi  said  the  Borough  has    r^Wed   for  a  qUarterly  report 


of  every  $100  of  assessed  remained  on  course  with  mini- 
property  value,  also  levies  a  mal  increases  due  largely  to 
5.5  percent  property  tax  hike  the  municipality's  switching  its

ments. 

—Matthew  Hersh 


the  proposal,  the  owner  of  an 
average  Borough  home  valued 
at  $350,000  would  now  pay 
$3,290  a  year  in  municipal 
tax,  an  increase  of  $175  from 
2005. 

And  while  the  budget  was 
introduced    relatively    quietly,  t 
with    few    questions    coming, 
from  Council  members  follow- 
ing a  budgetary  overview  by 
Borough  Administrator  Robert 
Bruschi,  there  still  appears  to 
be  room  for  discussion  in  the 
next    month.    Councilman 
Roger    Martindell,    who    also 
chairs  the  Borough's  Finance 
Committee,  Indicated  as  much  1 
last  week  when  he  said  that , 
while  the  overall  budget  was  < 
"achievable,  it  doesn't  mean 
that  we  will  accept  It,  or  that  4 
we  won't  challenge  It." 

Mr.  Bruschi  also  indicated 
that  the  Borough  needs  "to  do 
a  self-examination"  when  it 
comes  to  affordable  housing, 
particularly  in  matters  relating 
to  third  party  contracting.  For 
the  first  time,  the  Borough 
needs  an  affordable  housing 
subsidy  in  the  municipal  oper- 
ating budget.  Mr.  Bruschi 
encouraged  Council  members 
to  engage  in  a  "philosophical 
discussion"  to  see  where  the 
program  is  headed.  "Do  we 
think  this  Is  something  that  we 
want  to  continue  to  manage 
In-house?  There's  a  cost 
Involved  In  that."  Mr.  Bruschi 
said  Council  would  soon  see 
costs  from  outside  local  ven- 
dors experienced  In  affordable 
housing  that  could  conduct 
the  program  for  the  munici- 
pality. 

Mr.  Martindell  said  he  would 
have  to  look  at  the  entire  pro- 
gram before  agreeing  to  have 
an  outside  entity  manage  the 
affordable  housing  program. 

Mr.  Martindell  also  said  the 
Borough  should  hold  back  on 
"one-shot  revenues"  that  do 
not  have  a  sustaining  impact 
on    future    budgets.    He    re- 


health  benefits  program  for 
employees.  Additionally,  Mr. 
Bruschi  credited  a  revised 
debt  service  strategy  as  a  pri- 
mary means  of  curbing  munic- 
ipal spending.  Debt  service,

Forum  Addresses  Special  Education  Needs 
As  District  Looks  To  Streamline  Costs 


Four  candidates  vying  for 
three  seats  on  the  Princeton 
Regional  Board  of  Education 
faced  off  last  night  in  a  forum 
focusing  on  special  educa- 
tion, including  handling 
special-needs  students  and 
additional  teaching  aides  in 
the  classroom  for  students  in 
need  of  assistance. 

The  candidates,  Rebecca 
Cox  and  Josh  Leinsdorf,  who 
are  running  uncontested  for 
two  open  Borough  seats,  and 
Mia  Cahill  and  Caroline 
Mitchell  who  are  battling  for 
a  single  open  seat  In  the 
Township,  answered  both 
prepared  and  audience  ques- 
tions at  Monday  night's  forum 
at  the  John  Witherspoon  Mid- 
dle School  Library.  The 
event,  sponsored  by  the  Spe- 
cial Education  PTO,  also 
addressed  special  education 
needs  in  the  face  of  budget- 
ary constraints. 

Ms.  Cox  said  Princeton  was 
"ahead  of  the  curve"  when  It 
comes  to  special  education 
inclusion,  crediting  a  strong 
belief  in  diversity  throughout 
the  community.  Inclusion,  she 
added,  serves  as  a  powerful 
tool  for  special  education  stu- 
dents because  it  encourages 
social  interaction  and  allows 
for  a  greater  venue  for  group 
learning,  and  access  to  the 
general  curriculum. 

"Students  become  a  lot 
more  involved,  and  are 
exposed  to  high  expecta- 
tions," she  said,  adding  that 
potential  pitfalls  Include  cre- 
ating an  equitable  environ- 
ment that  suits  all  students' 
needs:  "It  requires  a  great 
flexibility  on  the  part  of 
teachers  and  that  can  be  a 
challenge." 


Ms.  Cox  said  inclusion  Is 
most  easily  implemented  at 
the  elementary  level. 

Mr.  Leinsdorf  also 
addressed  a  teacher's  ability 
to  Include  special  education 
students  in  regular  education 
classes,  saying  that  he  sup- 
ported teacher's  aides  in 
classes. 

"Diversity  gets  to  be  too 
much.  You're  only  one  per- 
son, and  It  really  has  to  be  a 
two-adult  classroom. 

"That's  the  only  thing  that's 
fair  to  everybody  and,  really, 
that  only  thing  that  works," 
he  said,  adding  that  "real 
diversity"  and  inclusiveness 
among  students  is  not  only  a 
benefit  to  the  special  educa- 
tion student,  but  to  the 
remainder  of  the  class  as 
well. 

Statutory  mandates  for  spe- 
cial education  are  geared 
toward  the  least  restrictive 
environment  for  a  student,  a 
point  Ms.  Cahill  used  to 
gauge  when,  and  If,  a  child 
should  be  included  in,  or 
removed  from,  a  classroom 
for  educational  purposes. 
One  of  the  benefits,  she  said, 
of  keeping  a  child  in  the 
classroom  and  providing  ade- 
quate support  is  that  a  stu- 
dent gains  academically, 
socially,  and  behaviorally. 

"If  the  supports  are  there,  I 
think  It's  Important  for  chil- 
dren to  gain  social  skills  that 
they  can  only  really  gain  in 
group  environments,"  she 
said.  But  to  include  a  child  in 
a  classroom  without  adequate 
support,  "you're  only  looking 
at  a  very  stressful  situation 
for  that  child,  that  child's 
family,  and  the  class." 

Ms.  Cahill,  who  has  a  child 


In  Community  Park  School, 
said  the  District  was  able  to 
get  an  additional  certified 
teacher  in  one  of  the  class- 
rooms to  help  with  special 
education  students. 

Regarding  testing  for  stu- 
dents, including  special  edu- 
cation students.  Ms.  Mitchell 
urged  that  the  District  look  at 
tools  needed  in  the  classroom 
outside  of  standardized  test- 
ing. She  emphasized  the 
importance  of  both  students 
and  parents  knowing  that  a 
child  is  progressing  within  the 
program. 

"Tests  are  a  part  of  life, 
and  they're  not  going  away, 
but  beyond  standardized 
tests,  how  are  we  going  to 
measure  a  student's  progress 
in  special  education?"  Ms. 
Mitchell  said  the  School 
Board  members  need  to  rely 
on  professional  consultation 
both  within  and  outside  of  the 
District. 

Ms.  Mitchell  also  called  for 
tools  other  than  standardized 
tests  to  measure  a  special 
education  student's  progress. 
"The  Board  would  have  to 
rely  on  specialists  to  know 
what  those  tools  are,"  she 
said. 

Ms.  Mitchell  also  empha- 
sized the  importance  of  keep- 
ing students  within  the  Dis- 
trict rather  than  sending 
special  education  students 
elsewhere. 

Current  School  Board 
members  not  seeking  re- 
election are  Anne  Bums,  a 
six-year  member  of  the 
Board,  and  the  Board's  cur- 
rent presidents,  and  Glenn 
Schlltz,  who  Is  letting  his  first, 
three-year  term  expire. 

The  District's  $72  million 
budget  and  the  four  candi- 
dates are  up  for  election 
Tuesday,  April  18.

continued  from  page  one 

budget  proposal  would  cost 
the  hospital  $4.5  million  a 
year,  eliminating  its  entire 
profit  margin,  the  equiva- 
lent of  laying  off  80  people, 
and  would  hamper  PHCS's 
chances  of  relocation. 

"That  would  leave  a  big 
void  in  the  health  care  of 
this  region,"  she  said,  add- 
ing that  the  decimation  of 
the  hospital's  profit  margin 
would  damage  the  institu- 
tion's credit  rating  to  the 
point  where  it  would  not 
be  able  to  borrow  money. 
At  the  end  of  the  day,  Ms. 
Hersh  said,  the  proposal 
"takes  away  an  economic 
tool  in  central  New  Jer- 
sey." 

Hospitals  generally  oper- 
ate on  less  than  1  percent 
profit,  with  UMCP  working 
slightly  above  that  number, 
and  PHCS,  under  the  presi- 
dent and  CEO  Barry  Rabner, 
has  worked  toward  getting 
above  sea  level  again.  "He 
did  what  he  had  to  do  to  get 
us  into  the  black,  and  that 
would  be  completely  wiped 
out,"  Ms.  Hersh  said,  also 
worrying  that  the  governor's 
proposal  would  create  a  di- 
chotomy when  It  comes  to 
reimbursement  per  Med- 
icaid patient  served,  with 
hospitals  treating  poorer 
patients  receiving  charity 
care  funding  where  others, 
like  UMCP,  would  not. 

As  charity  care  is  only 
being  funded  at  the  2002 
level,  the  hospital  is  dealing 
with  a  double-edged  sword: 
getting  taxed  more  and  not 
getting  the  reimbursement 
for  charity  care.  Right  now, 
PHCS  receives  about  45 
cents  per  dollar  In  char- 
ity care.  Under  the  budget 
proposal,  that  amount  could 
sink  to  as  low  as  15  cents. 

Ms.  Hersh  appeared  along- 
side Carol  Norris,  PHCS 
vice  president  for  Market- 
ing and  Public  Affairs,  Mon- 
day night  at  a  forum  spon- 
sored by  the  Princeton  Area 
League  of  Women  Voters.

ALL  IN  A  DAY'S  WORK 


Peter  Soderman  in  the  Herban  Garden 


It  was  Riding  In  Cars  with  Boys— well,  not  quite— with  landscape  artist  Peter 
Soderman  and  stonemason  Paul  Browne  to  a  place  that  Soderman  described  as 
Gotham  quarry  to  select  about  50  ions  of  rock  for  a  project  both  men  are  involved 
in.  It's  the  sort  of  chore  that  is  all  in  a  day's  work  for  Soderman.  Not  coincidental- 
ly,  "All  in  a  Day's  Work"  is  the  title  of  this  new  Town  Topics  feature— a  series  of 
interviews  offering  people  in  the  Princeton  community  the  chance  to  talk  in  their 
own  words  about  their  own  work.  Here  you  will  get  acquainted  with  people  vou 
might  see  around  town,  like  Peter  Soderman,  who  maintains  the  Herban  Garden 
on  Paul  Robeson  Place  and  who  was  part  of  the  team  that  made  last  year's  Writers 
Block  a  reality. 

Peter  Soderman  has  lived  in  Princeton  for  most  of  his  49  years  save  for  sojourns 
in  Colorado  and  New  Mexico  and  a  short  time  as  a  baby,  of  which  he  has  no 
recollection.  After  graduating  from  Princeton  High  School,  he  went  to  Fork  Union 
military  school  in  Virginia.  He  learned  tracking  and  survival  skills  from  famed  New 
Jersey  naturalist  Tom  Browne  ("The  Tracker")  and  claims  to  have  fallen  into 
landscape  design  by  default.  It  suits  him  though,  as  he  has  always  felt  the  need  "to 
create  an  Innisfree,  a  quiet  place,  a  medicine  place." 

— Linda  Amtzenius 

You'd  be  shocked  at  how  stressful  my  job  Is,  like  being  a  welder  on  the  Titanic. 
Your  body  takes  a  physical  beating  in  a  job  like  this.  This  morning  I  picked  out 
about  50  tons  of  quarry  rock  for  a  terracing  project  involving  a  waterfall  and  a 
pond.  This  afternoon  I'm  going  to  be  building  a  fence  and  cutting  beech  staves. 

I  usually  start  my  day  by  swimming  and  then  I  run  or  hit  the  heavy  bag  at  the  gym. 
Then  I  go  to  the  library  where  I  write  business  emails  for  an  hour  and  a  half.  When  It 
comes  to  working  on  a  landscape,  1  have  to  be  in  the  space  to  see  what  the  sun  is 
doing,  what  the  wind  is  doing.  I  don't  want  to  sound  like  some  arcane  mystic  but  you 
have  to  listen  to  the  space.  It's  important  to  wing  things,  to  put  something  up  upside 
down  occasionally,  because  mistakes  usually  bring  you  to  new  Ideas.  It  usually  happens 
with  moving  water.  Directing  drainage,  for  instance,  as  much  of  a  curse  as  It  is,  often 
becomes  a  solution. 

There's  a  difference  between  a  guy  who  builds  stone  walls  and  a  guy  who  frames  a 
house,  grabbing  the  same  kind  of  predictable  piece  of  lumber  every  time  and  following 
the  blueprint.  The  guy  who  builds  the  stone  wall  has  to  renegotiate  on  the  rocks'  terms 
every  time.  There's  a  humility  to  that.  The  guy  who  builds  stone  walls  thinks  differently, 
he  doesn't  live  in  that  squared  metric  where  things  are  predictable.  I  don't  build  many 
stone  walls,  but  1  operate  In  the  same  way. 

Synchronicity 

I  like  to  be  the  court  jester  of  synchronicity.  Synchronlcity  is  the  alignment  of  forces 
that  creates  momentum  and  some  kind  of  magic,  I  guess.  When  there's  synchronlcity, 
there's  a  kind  of  bullet-proofness  to  something.  It's  in  a  restaurant  kitchen,  for  exam- 
ple, during  the  20  minutes  before  lunch.  Things  come  together  in  a  harmonious, 
intentional  collaboration.  Synchronicity  happened  with  Writers  Block.  Here  was  a 
space  that  had  been  vacant  for  12  years.  People  drove  by  and  never  asked  questions 
about  it.  Spaces  like  that  are  not  okay.  We  got  a  big  kick  out  of  it.  One  person  In 
particular  was  a  real  Doubting  Thomas.  I  bumped  into  him  after  he'd  been  out  of  town 
for  a  couple  of  months  and  he  asked  me  what  was  happening  with  the  "Dead  Poets' 
Society  thing."  So  I  said  why  don't  you  take  a  walk  up  the  street  and  tell  me.  There 
was  a  fashion  show  going  on  that  day,  with  beautiful  women  sashaying  around  and 
about  300  people  in  the  space.  That  shut  him  up! 

Of  course,  it  would  never  have  happened  without  collaboration,  without  architect 
Kevin  Wilkes  and  landscape  architect  Alan  Goodheart.  I  was  the  dreamer.  Alan  was  the 
editor.  Kevin  was  the  facilitator.  Kevin  can  expedite,  facilitate,  and  administrate.  To 
use  the  most  misused  word  In  the  English  language,  I  was  the  visionary,  in  the  sense 
that  Don  Quixote  is  a  visionary,  meaning  a  guy  who's  basically  lost  his  mind! 

I  like  to  do  socially  redemptive  projects  that  have  an  impact  on  the  community, 
things  like  Writers  Block  and  the  Herban  Garden,  projects  that  require  you  take  a  vow 
of  poverty,  unfortunately.  While  there's  not  a  lot  of  money  in  projects  like  this,  there 
are  satisfactions.  I  love  to  homestead  a  vacant  space.  The  Herban  Garden  came  about 
when  Carlo  Momo  asked  me  to  plant  some  tomatoes  for  him  about  five  or  six  years 
ago.  It  has  continued  to  mutate:  a  herb  garden,  a  farmers  market,  an  art  venue.  To  me 
what's  exciting  is  being  able  to  create  events  and  the  social  confluence  of  the  market 
and  artists'  work.  1  still  supervise  the  garden  but  1  have  a  business  to  run,  too. 

Poets  Alley 

Poets  Alley  is  my  next  project,  working  with  the  poets  of  Princeton  to  create  a 
combination  of  water,  light  and  sound  Installation,  possibly  video  too.  That's  my  hope. 
I've  got  to  raise  the  money  for  it.  That's  one  of  the  problems  of  being  a  garden  artist, 
you've  got  to  be  creative  about  figuring  out  where  the  funding  comes  from.  You've  got 
to  reinvent  yourself  every  day.  It's  about  trying  to  make  the  community  a  better  place. 

Princeton  is,  for  me,  a  launching  pad  for  such  projects.  I  worked  in  Colorado  and 
New  Mexico  for  a  time.  I  love  the  high  plains,  the  wide  open  spaces,  the  power  of  the 
land  in  New  Mexico.  But  people  there  don't  have  the  same  interest  In  fixing  up  their 
back  yards  as  they  do  in  New  Jersey.  They  can  go  to  the  national  parks  and  have 
spiritual  experiences  in  the  Rocky  Mountains.  In  New  Jersey  a  garden  means  more.  We 
live  In  a  place  where  it  is  cold  six  months  out  of  the  year  and  the  soil  is  very  fertile. 
That's  a  powerful  combination  for  people  with  the  desire  to  sequester,  to  have  a 
beautiful  garden  in  your  own  Jersey  Nirvana. 

As  a  kid  growing  up  In  Princeton  I  was  a  consummate  athlete.  I  hung  out  on  the 
playing  fields  with  my  two  brothers.  I  spent  a  lot  of  time  In  the  woods.  I  was  a  boy 
scout  in  Troup  88. 1  studied  with  Tom  Brown  in  my  thirties  and  early  forties.  As  a  kid.  I 
wanted  to  be.  believe  it  or  not  a  highly  spiritual  evolved  being  when  I  was  an  adult.  I 
studied  to  be  minister  when  I  was  In  my  early  twenties  In  Philadelphia.  With  respect  to 
that,  my  life  is  saturated  with  disappointment! 

I'd  like  to  travel.  I'd  like  to  live  out  West.  But  Princeton  is  my  home  base.  It's  a  good 
town.  People  complain  about  it.  I  do  too.  but  it's  a  good  town,  a  real  town.  I  have  a  lot 
of  friends  here.

10  The  study,  sponsored  by 
Princeton  Future,  precedes 
a  formal  April  20  hear- 
ing by  the  Regional  Plan- 
ning Board  of  Princeton  at 
which  Merwick  will  again  be 
the  center  of  discussion.  In 
the  meantime,  however, 
architects  have  begun  to 
put  forth  their  own  ideas. 
Princeton  Future  collabora- 
tors have  said  the  aim  Is  to 
assist  the  Planning  Board 
with  the  process  of  rewrit- 
ing the  Princeton  Communi- 
ty Master  Plan,  which  would 
lead  to  eventual  changes  at 
the  Merwick  site,  including 
zoning  to  accommodate  any 
future  development. 

Presentations    ranged 
from  more  specific  designs 
to  simply  troubleshoot- 
ing and  pointing  out  what 
could  be  improved.  Designs 
Included  those  by  Chris 
Knigge,  assistant  Borough 
Engineer;  Richardson  Smith 
Architects,-  Glttlngs  Associ- 
ates; architect  Dan  Rew; 
Outerbridge  Morgan  Asso- 
ciates; HACBM  Architects; 
Francis  Treves  Architects; 
and  Heidi  Fichtenbaum  of 
Farewell  Mills  Gatsch  Archi- 
tects and  Charlotte  Bialek, 
of  the  Princeton  Regional 
Board  of  Education,  both 
of  whom  presented  inde- 


pendently of  their  respec- 
tive professions. 

Ideas  raised  during  the 
session  were  the  possible 
extension  of  Chambers 
Street  north  through  the 
current  Y  playing  fields;  a 
"land  swap"  between  a  por- 
tion of  the  Y  and  Merwick; 
and  an  economical  use  of 
the  Stanworth  property — 
one  that  several  architects 
said  could  be  developed 
in  more  of  a  smart  growth 
fashion. 

Princeton    University, 
which  is  the  contract  pur- 
chaser  of   the   Merwick 
property,  has  expressed  an 
interest  in  redeveloping  the 
entire  Merwick/Stanworth 
site,  but  has  not  put  forth 
any  concepts  or  proposals. 
University  representatives 
have  indicated  that  new 
development   is  at   least 
five  years  off  and  that  any 
building  would  be  dictated 
by  changes  in  zoning. 

In  addition  to  encourag- 
ing a  Chambers  extension, 
Mr.  Knigge's  plan  included 
ri  parking  garage  built  Into 
the  center  of  the  Merwick 
site,   a  small  amount  of 
retail  along  Paul  Robeson 
Place,  and  a  plaza  abut- 
ting John  Street.  His  plan 
also  included  a  new  pedes- 
trian connection  into  Stan- 
worth. 

Jesse  Pederson,  repre- 
senting Richardson/Smith, 
did  not  propose  a  specific

site  plan,  but  expressed  a 
hope  that  the  University 
would  acquire  the  Merwick 
site,  and  that  Master  Plan 
and  zoning  changes  should 
encourage  the  University 
and  the  town  working  to- 
gether on  future  develop- 
ment. 

"We  should  have  a  unique 
and  flexible  pattern  of  zon- 
ing; an  intelligent  plan  to 
zoning  and  design,"  Mr. 
Pederson  said,  echoing  Mr. 
Knigge's  model  that  a  land 
swap  should  be  considered 
between  the  Y  and  the  Mer- 
wick property. 

However,  Mr.  Pederson 
said  the  Master  Plan  should 
not  promote  street  connec- 
tions to  surrounding  neigh- 
borhoods and  that  the  em- 
phasis should  be  on  biking 
and  walking  connectors. 

Ms.  Fichtenbaum  picked 
the  popular  land-swap  idea 
that  would  exchange  some 
of  the  Y's  site  to  bring  a  new 
street  in  to  the  west  of  John 
Street,  and  develop  that 
street  with  housing  similar 
to  that  of  the  John-Wither- 
spoon  neighborhood.  She 
also  promoted  the  "boule- 
vard" approach  to  Route 
206:  "Rather  than  having  a 
race  strip,  we  should  allow 
people  to  weave  through 
the  site,  and  work  their  way 
around  surrounding  neigh- 
borhoods." 

Ms.  Flchtenbaum's  plan 
would  also  save  the  Y's 
Bramwell  House  and  would 
place  structured  parking  at 
the  Y,  getting  rid  of  the  sur- 
face lot,  which  would  allow 
for  a  greater  density,  she 
said. 

Ms.  Fichtenbaum  held  off 
on  a  design  proposal  for 
Merwick,  saying  "it  would 
be  pushing  the  envelope  a 
little  too  hard,"  but  added 
that  the  space  as  It  cur- 
rently stands,  "is  not  well 
used."

Conversely,  Bill  Gittings  of 
Gitting  Associates  focused 
heavily  on  the  Stanworth 
site,  arguing  that  providing 
affordable  homes  "is  re- 
ally crucial,  but  the  way  It's 
designed,  it's  an  enclave, 
and  an  odd  mixture  of  one- 
story  pieces  and  two-story 
pieces." 

Mr.  Gittings  also  ad- 
dressed the  so-called  Mer- 
wick Woods  to  the  east 
of  Merwick,  saying  that  a 
good  portion  of  the  brush 
could  be  cleared,  but  that 
an  existing  row  of  Sycamore 
trees  should  remain. 

Dan  Rew,  of  CUH2A, 
looked  at  vehicular  flow, 
and  encouraged  the  idea  of 
a  throughway  running  from 
downtown  toward  Commu- 
nity Park,  adding  that  re- 
sulting development  would 
be  In  line  with  the  surround- 
ing neighborhoods. 

Peter  Morgan,  of  Outer- 
bridge  Morgan,  cited  the 
redevelopment  of  London 
after  the  Great  Fire  of 
1666,  particularly  that  of 
Bedford  Square,  creating  a 
"permeability  through  the 
site  of  what  is  private  and 
public."  He  also  proposed 
structured  public  parking 
off  Paul  Robeson,  servic- 
ing the  neighborhoods  and 
theY. 

Mr.  Morgan  also  support- 
ed the  Idea  of  running  a 
connector  street  from  Stan- 
worth to  Leigh  Avenue. 

Perhaps  the  most  sur- 
prising presentation  was 
from  Dr.  Ahmed  Azmy,  of 
HACBM  architecture,  who 
encouraged  the  University 
to  purchase  the  Merwick 
land  but  then  donate  It  to 
the  municipality.  "It  could 
be  a  marvelous  thing,"  he 
said. 

Nearly  all  of  the  present- 
ers supported  the  idea  of 
preserving  the  original  Mer- 
wick Mansion  to  serve  as  ei- 
ther a  community  center  or 
to  be  split  into  tenements.

with  raising  his  grade  from 
a  C  to  an  A  in  chemistry  and 
thanked  Mr.  Kushner  for  his 
care  in  choosing  a  good-fit 
tutor. 

In  support  of  Mr.  Kush- 
ner, who  has  been  direc- 
tor of  the  Center  for  three 
years,  senior  Matthew  Fee- 
ney  presented  the  Board 
with  a  petition  expressing 
the  view  that  "the  position 
of  director  is  essential  to 
the  smooth  running  of  the 
IDEAS  center." 

Senior  Rohith  Chan- 
drasekar  argued  that  the 


job  of  director  of  the  IDEAS 
center  was  too  important  to 
cut  or  replace  with  a  part- 
time  position.  He  praised 
Mr.  Kushner's  way  of  in- 
teracting with  students. 
"Minority  student  achieve- 
ment is  supported  greatly  by 
the  IDEAS  Center  and  Mr. 
Kushner,"  he  said. 

In  response,  Ms.  Wilson 
said  that  the  issue  before 
the  board  is  not  the  elimina- 
tion of  the  IDEAS  center  but 
a  consolidation  of  staffing.

she  has  been  working  to  de- 
velop with  colleagues  since 
last  fall. 

To  comply  with  the  fed- 
eral government's  Child  Nu- 
trition and  Women,  Infants 
and  Children  Reauthoriza- 
tion Act  of  2004.  and  state 
mandates  designed  to  com- 
bat obesity,  the  Princeton 
Regional  School  District 
must  have  a  wellness  policy 
in  place  by  the  start  of  the 
new  school  year  in  Septem- 
ber and  be  in  compliance 
with  the  policy  by  Septem- 
ber 2007. 

The  state  mandate  re- 
quires districts  to  adopt  a 
general  school  nutrition 
policy  that  would  forbid 
the  sale  of  foods  of  mini- 
mal nutritional  value,  such 
as  candy.  The  requirement 
applies  to  food  sold  through 
the  school  lunch  program, 
snacks  from  vending  ma- 
chines, as  well  as  foods  sold 
at  bake  sales. 

Ms.  Brungart,  who  Is 
school  nurse  at  John  Wlth- 
erspoon  Middle  School 
(JWMS),  reported  that  cur- 
rently 6.6  percent  of  stu- 
dents at  the  middle  school 
are  overweight  and  that 
over  2  percent  qualify  as 
obese. 

The  Wellness  Policy  Com- 
mittee has  drawn  up  goals 
and  objectives  in  the  areas 
of  physical  fitness,  nutri- 
tion (including  food  service 
operations),  and  nutrition 
education,  as  well  as  in  the 
area  of  program  assess- 
ment. It  recommends  that 
each  school  in  the  district 
have  a  wellness  committee 
that  would  combat  obesity 
and  promote  a  healthy  life- 
style. 

"Current  physical  educa- 
tion programs  do  not  meet 
the  needs  of  our  at-risk  stu- 
dents," said  Ms.  Brungart, 
"and  nutrition  also  falls 
short."  She  commended 
the  successful  gardening 
program  at  Riverside  El- 
ementary School,  which 
she  suggested  might  be  ex- 
panded or  adopted  by  other 
schools. 

Superintendent  of  Schools 
Judith  A.  Wilson  acknowl- 
edged the  work  of  the  vol- 
unteers who  had  worked 
to  put  the  wellness  policy 
in  place.  "I  expect  this  to 
be  a  hallmark  throughout 
the  state,"  she  said.  "The 
proposed  new  policy  goes 
beyond  the  government- 
mandated  guidelines  to 
help  promote  fitness  and 
good  nutrition  for  all  district 
students."  She  said  that  the 
board  would  complete  its 
review  and  analysis  of  the 
proposed  policy  before  the 
start  of  the  new  school  year 
in  September. 

The  Board  also  heard  for- 
mal resolutions  in  recogni- 
tion of  the  contributions  of 
departing  members,  Presi- 
dent Anne  Burns  and  board 
member  Glenn  Schiltz,  nei- 
ther of  whom  Is  seeking 
re-election. 

Member  Michael  Mostoller 
commended  Ms.  Burns  for 
her  penetrating  intelligence, 
her  warmth  and  wit,  her  en- 
ergy and  enthusiasm,  her 
commitment  to  all.  There 
were  tears  from  Ms.  Bums 
as  she  received  a  standing 
ovation  from  those  attend- 
ing. 

Mr.  Schiltz  was  com- 
mended for  his  efforts  in 
minority  education.  "Glen 
has  challenged  us  with  his 
penetrating  questions  which 
have  made  our  deliberations 
more  thoughtful,"  com- 
mented Ms.  Bums.

Quality  Products  and  Design  Service 
Highlight  Princeton  Stone  &  Tile 


-    ij 


At  Princeton  Stone  &  Tile, 
you  step  into  a  world  of  fab- 
ulous baths  and  kitchens,  all 
artfully  designed  and  deco- 
rated with  tiles  and  stone 
from  all  over  the  world. 

At  the  entrance,  a  beauti- 
ful waterfall,  constructed  of 
slate,  with  glass  accents,  by 
owner  Ricky  Kelly,  also  fea- 
tures a  pond  in  which  fish 
glide  gracefully  to  and  fro. 
It  sets  the  tone  for  the  won- 
derful display  in  the  show- 
room and  design  studio  at 
45-B  State  Road,  which  has 
been  newly  renovated.  The 
sample  room  settings  and 
the  incredible  selection  of 
floor  and  wall  tiles,  hand- 
made porcelains,  limestone, 
tumbled  marble,  slate,  glass 
and  metal,  custom  coun- 
tertops,  kitchen  and  bath 
cabinetry,  and  fixtures  are  a 
visual  treat. 

Opened  in  1994,  the 
showroom  focuses  on  stone 
and  ceramic  tiles,  especially 
popular  for  kitchen,  bath, 
and  foyer — although  they  are 
now  seen  in  any  room  in  the 
house,  notes  store  manager, 
Maureen  McGraw. 

"You  also  see  more  glass, 
including  glass  vessel  sinks, 
shower  enclosures,  and 
countertops,  "  she  points 
out.  "We  use  a  lot  of  glass 
inserts,  too,  in  decorative 
pieces  for  walls,  and  metal 
accents  also  continue  to  be 
popular." 

Stone  and  ceramic  tile  are 
increasingly  in  demand,  and 
they  are  appropriate  for  dif- 
ferent styles  of  home  decor. 
"The  Tuscan  look  and  tum- 
bled stone  has  great  appeal, 
here,"  says  Ms.  McGraw.  "It 


is  very  tactile.  You  want  to 
touch  it." 

Ceramic  tile,  slate,  lime- 
stone, marble,  and  onyx  are 
favorites,  and  onyx  has  a 
translucent  quality,  popular 
for  back  lighting,  she  points 
out. 

Shore  Houses 

Countertops  are  another 
part  of  Princeton  Stone  & 
Tile's  business,  she  adds. 
"We  do  a  lot  of  limestone 
countertops,  also  granite, 
and  marble  (not  for  kitchen). 
Granite  is  the  strongest,  then 
limestone." 

Tile  and  stone  are  also  fa- 
vorites for  screened  porches 
and  shore  houses.  "We  are 
busy  with  those,  and  we 
also  ship  to  other  places  for 
customers  who  have  second 
homes." 

Ms  McGraw  points  out  that 
tile  and  stone  used  outside 
for  patios  and  walkways, 
etc.  must  be  stronger  with 
an  added  thickness  to  with- 
stand the  elements  and  pre- 
vent cracking  in  winter. 

"It's  a  more  relaxed  life- 
style today,  she  adds.  "People 
like  tile  and  stone  because  it 
looks  great,  is  durable,  with 
easy  maintenance,  and  there 
is  a  comfort  level  to  it." 

With  so  many  designs  and 
patterns  available,  the  pos- 
sibilities and  choices  are 
nearly  endless.  There  is  cer- 
tainly something  for  every- 
one's taste.  If  customers  are 
uncertain,  Ms.  McGraw  and 
the  design  team  will  be  glad 
to  advise. 

"We  get  a  feel  for  people's 
taste  for  color  and  their 
style,  and  go  on  from  there." 
she  says. 


An  Oasis 

Stone  and  tile  for  kitchen 
and  bath  floors,  walls,  and 
backsplashes  are  the  major 
focus,  she  adds.  "We  do  a 
lot  of  both,  and  baths  in 
particular  are  becoming  an 
oasis  for  people.  They  are 
bigger,  and  customers  want 
something  really  special.  We 
also  do  bench  seats  for  the 
shower.  Stone  is  popular  for 
that." 

Time  of  completion  of  a 
re-do  depends  on  the  mate- 
rials chosen.  Hand-done  tiles 
may  take  four  weeks  Just  to 
be  delivered,  for  example. 
"Typically,  a  standard  bath- 
room can  take  from  two  to 
three  weeks  at  a  minimum 
for  labor,  including  taking 
out  the  existing  floor  and/ 
or  walls,  and  putting  in  the 
new,"  notes  Ms.  McGraw. 
"Of  course,  the  decision- 
making takes  time  too." 

Generally,  the  cost  of  tile 
and  stone  is  determined  by 
the  square  foot.  Decorative 
tiles,  however,  are  priced  by 
the  piece. 

She  points  out  that  the 
staff  at  Princeton  Stone  & 
Tile  sees  the  project  through 
from  beginning  to  end.  "We 
do  a  lot  of  hand-holding 
here.  There  is  plenty  of  care 
and  personal  attention,  and 
it  sets  us  apart.  Our  staff  re- 
ally likes  what  they  do,  and 
are  very  knowledgeable.  It's 
very  collaborative  here.  We 
are  really  a  team. 

"We  also  have  our  own 
installers,"  she  adds,  "and 
that  same  care  and  person- 
al service  goes  out  into  the 
field."

sFront  Page  Editorial  of  60  Years  Ago 
1  Commended  for  Memories  It  Evoked 


2  To  the  Editor: 

.  Thank  you  for  reproducing  in  the  March  29  issue  the  front 
"2  page  of  the  first  Town  Topics,  printed  exactly  60  years  ago. 
Z-The  editorial  solemnly  welcomed  back  the  men  and  women 
2  of  Princeton  who  served  in  World  War  II  and  observed  their 
o  reentry  into  all  facets  of  life  in  their  town,  "making  places 
5  for  themselves  in  the  peacetime  sun." 
*"-  I  was  struck  by  the  graceful  tone  of  the  writing  —  heartfelt 
9  yet  direct,  elegant  yet  restrained.  In  three  succinct  and  poi- 
o  gnant  paragraphs,  the  editorial  embraced  those  who  stayed, 

§*"  those  who  left,  and  those  who  returned,  and  addressed 
them  as  members  of  one  purposeful  community. 
*"     This  eloquent  piece  reminded  me  why  journalists  were 
once  revered.

Vemocra&Backroom  Dealing  Decried 
In  Lead-Up  to  Primary  Election  in  June 

To  the  Editor: 

I  am  appalled,  yet  not  surprised,  by  the  backroom  secret 
negotiations  that  have  taken  place  in  the  last  few  weeks  at 
the  Township  Committee.  The  fact  that  Bill  Hearon  would 
withdraw  his  resignation  when  someone  other  than  Scott 
Carver  was  to  replace  him  is  shameful.  After  Chad  Goerner 
had  received  the  majority  of  votes  over  Scott  Carver  from 
the  Township  Democratic  Committee,  Mr.  Carver  withdrew 
his  name  in  a  fit  of  sour  grapes.  When  Mr.  Hearon  was 
faced  with  having  Mr.  Goerner  replace  him  he  rescinded 
his  resignation.  The  fact  that  the  process  can  be  thwarted 
by  two  people  is  a  sad  fact  of  the  Democratic  party  in 
Princeton. 

Look  for  more  maneuvering  and  secret  deals  in  the 
months  leading  up  to  the  next  election.  All  the  while  the 
same  people  (Mr.  Carver  and  Mr.  Hearon)  will  talk  about 
wanting  a  more  "open  process."  It  is  doubtful  that  there 
will  be  any  new  names  on  the  Democratic  ticket. 

Thanks,  Bill  and  Scott;  by  following  your  own  selfish 
agendas  you  make  all  Democrats  look  bad.

CHECKING  THE  VARIABLES 


Work-specific  eyewear 
that  makes  use  of  variable 
focus  lenses  is  increas- 
ingly becoming  the  eye- 
wear of  choice  by  computer 
users  with  presbyopia  (age- 
related  loss  of  near-focus- 
ing ability).  These  lenses 
provide  an  all-purpose  lens 
for  any  task  accomplished 
in  the  near  to  mid-distance 
range.  They  also  provide 
a  wider  reading  and  inter- 
mediate segment  than  pro- 
gressive lenses,  as  well  as 
a  wider  field  of  vision.  In 
fact,  variable  lenses  pro- 
vide added  visual  comfort 
for  virtually  any  work  or  play 
activity  that  takes  place  in 
the  near  to  mid-range.  The 
use  of  variable  lenses, 
therefore,  does  not  have  to 
be  restricted  to  computer 
users.  They  are  also  very 
useful  for  hobbyists,  as  well 
as  for  reading. 
Variable  focus  lenses 
are  suitable  for  a  variety 


of  activities  ranging  from 
computer  work  to  hob- 
bies. Visit  MONTGOMERY 
EYE  CARE  at  Montgom- 
ery Center  at  1325  Route 
206  to  browse  through  our 
extensive  display  of  eye- 
wear in  the  latest  shapes, 
sizes,  and  colors.  We  fill 
prescriptions  with  light- 
weight lenses  that  sharpen 
visual  performance  and 
reduce  glare.  Call  us  at 
609-279-0005  to  schedule 
an  eye  exam.  Office  hours 
are  Mon  10-8;  Tues,  Wed, 
Thurs  10-7;  Fri  10-6,  and 
Sat  9-3. 

P.S.  While  not  as  conve- 
nient as  variable  focus 
lenses,  a  pair  of  dedicated 
single-vision  computer 
glasses  provides  computer 
users  with  an  economi- 
cal choice  that  is  useful  for 
vision  range  within  the  near 
to  mid-range  area.

Township  Seen  as  Violating  Its  Own 
Ordinance  Covering  Residential  Lots 

To  The  Editor: 

From  the  do  as  I  say,  not  as  I  do  column,  comes  this,  from 
the  Spring  2006  Princeton  Township  Newsletter,  page  3. 
'Zoning  Department  Updates": 

"The  Township  found  (through  numerous  studies)  that 
flooding,  erosion,  and  water  pollution  occurs  in  the  town- 
ship due  to  excessive  storm  water  run-off  from  construction 
of  impervious  surfaces  such  as  roofs,  driveways,  parking 
areas,  patios,  and  walkways.  Because  this  has  become  an 
issue  of  great  concern,  the  Township  enacted  an  Impervious 
Coverage  Limitation  Ordinance,  a  zoning  bulk  requirement, 
which  limits  the  amount  of  impervious  coverage  one  can 
have  on  a  residential  building  lot." 

Now  fast  forward  to  Township  Committee  meetings  as 
recent  as  March  27,  wherein  an  impervious  cover  of  some 
length  (a  sidewalk,  where  none  presently  exists)  is  being 
foisted  on  Overbrook  Drive  residential  building  lots  in  the 
guise  of  improved  drainage  and  roadwork. 

Are  we  speaking  the  same  language?

Another  Eyesore  Spotted  in  Borough: 
Traffic  Light  Arm  at  Monument  Park 

To  the  Editor: 

Has  anyone  else  noticed  the  eyesore  recently  erected  in 
Monument  Park  in  front  of  Borough  Hall — our  quaint  Town 
Square,  our  emerging  outdoor  statue  museum,  our  midtown 
cherry  blossom  grove? 

NJDOT  trucks  rolled  up  the  other  day,  and  the  hardhat 
boys  installed  a  utilitarian  traffic  light  extension  arm  at 
the  intersection  of  Nassau  Street  and  Bayard  Lane.  Like 
a  thumb  in  the  eye,  they  stuck  (ouch!)  yet  another  traf- 
fic light  into  dramatic  promenade  vista  showcasing  the 
Battle  of  Princeton  Monument  by  Frederick  MacMonnies. 
Smack  in  the  middle  of  the  elegant  sight  line  from  Nassau 
Street  now  hangs  "Delayed  Green."  Considering  its  ugly 
consequence  for  our  village  green,  it  might  as  well  read, 
"Diminished  Green." 

Sure,  Route  206  is  a  state  road.  Sure,  traffic  regulation 
is  a  problem.  But  enough  already.  Where  were  Princeton's 
Historical  Preservation  Commission  or  Zoning  Board  in 
this  process?

BOOK  REVIEW 


Cleaning  House,  or:  The  New  Yorker  Ate  My  Study 


I  wish  New  Yorker  cartoonist  Charles  Ad- 
dams  were  alive  to  draw  the  nightmare  I 
had  before  1  finally  rounded  up  numer- 
ous errant  back  issues  of  the  magazine 
he  worked  for  and  dragged  them  out  for 
recycling.  If  you're  old  enough  to  be  a  ra- 
dio person,  you  remember  Fibber  McGee's 
closet.  Every  time  he  opened  the  door,  a 
sound-effects-man's  dream  of  junk  would 
fall  on  his  head.  Or  maybe  you  remember 
the  scene  in  the  Marx  Brothers'  A  Night 
at  the  Opera  where  the  human  multitude 
packed  into  a  tiny  stateroom  comes  spilling 
out  when  someone  opens  the  door.  And  if 
you  live  in  Princeton,  you  may  have  had 
uneasy  images  of  water  rising  up  through 
the  floorboards  and  engulfing  your  cozy 
home.  Now  imagine  back  issues  of  the 
New  Yorker  pushing  up  through  the  floor, 
pouring  out  of  the  bathroom,  or  tumbling 
down  on  your  head  when  you  open  the 
closet  door.  In  my  dream,  I  actually  found 
heaps  of  the  things  rustling  and  thrusting 
suggestively  about,  caught  in  the  act,  co- 
habitating,  mating  under  cover  of  darkness 
to  produce  yet  more  little  New  Yorkers. 

You'd  think  the  housekeeping  benefits 
alone  would  be  reason  enough  to  invest 
in  The  Complete  New  Yorker,  which  sells 
online  for  a  price  ranging  from  $48  to 
$70.  Last  time  I  checked,  the  best  deal 
was  at  thenewyorkerstore.com. 

As  tempted  as  I  was  by  the  possibility 
of  having  access  to  the  covers,  cartoons, 
features,  poetry,  fiction,  and  reviews,  not 
to  mention  the  order-enhancing  prospect 
of  having  it  all  neatly  contained  on  eight 
compact  DVD-ROMS,  that  wasn't  what  ac- 
tually inspired  me  to  purchase  The  Com- 
plete New  Yorker;  it  was  the  idea  of  be- 
ing able  to  browse  through  the  magazine's 
documentation  of  almost  nine  decades  of 
Manhattan  night  life,  all  the  plays,  movies, 
jazz,  all  the  theatres,  movlehouses,  and 
night  clubs.  My  fascination  with  this  aspect 
of  the  city  is  easily  explained.  Imagine  be- 
ing raised  in  Indiana  and  then  spending  the 
ninth  grade  going  to  the  same  school  off 
Central  Park  West  that  the  author  of  The 
Catcher  in  the  Wye  spent  the  ninth  grade 
in  20  years  before  me.  I  had  to  take  the 
subway  to  McBurney  every  morning  but 
after  school  I  walked  home  through  Times 
Square  in  the  days  when  first-run  mov- 
iehouses  like  the  Astor  and  the  Victoria 
featured  immense  billboards,  and  the  RKO 
Palace  still  had  daytime  vaudeville  between 
movies,  and  you  could  go  to  a  matinee  at 
the  Music  Hall  with  a  stage  show  for  75 
cents.  Those  were  also  the  days  when  they 
let  underage  kids  in  to  hear  Count  Basie 
and  Dizzy  Gillespie  at  Birdland  as  long  as 
they  stuck  to  Cokes  and  Ginger  Ale. 

It  makes  sense,  then,  that  the  offices  of 
The  New  Yorker  have  always  been  within 
shouting  distance  of  the  Great  White  Way. 
And  today  they're  right  in  the  heart  of  it 
at  4  Times  Square. 


Reading  in  the  Original 

One  of  the  advantages  of  having  every 
issue  of  the  magazine  at  hand  is  the  oppor- 
tunity to  see  special  pieces  in  their  origi- 
nal surroundings.  While  Joseph  Mitchell's 
slices  of  New  York  life  may  be  no  less 
evocative  in  book  form,  they  are  literally 
in  their  element  in  the  magazine,  and  if 
you  can  believe  the  The  New  Yorker  is 
New  York,  you're  closer  to  the  source  as 
you  peruse  "McSorleys  Wonderful  Saloon" 
amid  the  ads,  cartoons,  poetry,  and  "Go- 
ings On  About  Town"  reflecting  the  time 
and  the  place.  The  same  is  true  of  land- 
mark features  such  as  Lillian  Ross's  profile 
of  Ernest  Hemingway,  or  John  Herseys 
Hiroshima,  or  Truman  Capote's  In  Cold 
Blue  (with  the  Richard  Avedon  photos). 

J.D.  Salinger,  my  old  schoolmate  20 
years  removed,  has  probably  consumed 
more  space  in  more  single  New  Yorkers 
than  anyone  else,  and  the  only  back  issues 
of  the  magazine  I've  collected  have  been 
the  ones  with  his  work  in  them.  Whenever 
an  installment  from  his  Glass  family  saga 
was  looming,  the  edi- 
tors reportedly  had  to 
pressure  him  to  give 
them  a  firm  date  so 
that  they  could  set 
aside  virtually  an  en- 
tire issue  for  "Raise 
High  the  Roof  Beam, 
Carpenters"   which 
ran  from  p.  51  to  p. 
1 16;  "Seymour:  An 
Introduction"  (42  to 
111),  "Zooey,"  (32 
to  139);  and  "Hap- 
worth  16,  1924,"  the 
last  work  he  allowed 
into   print   back  on 
June  19,  1965,  which 
ran  from  p.  32  to  p. 
113.  Maybe  because 
I  sensed  it  might  be 
the  last  sighting  of 
the    misanthropic 
author  in  his  native 
New  Yorker  habitat, 
I  made  sure  to  hang 
on  to  that  issue.  I'm 
glad  I  did  because  It's 
the  only  place  7-year-old  Seymour's  mag- 
nificently verbose,  "touching,"  "heartrend- 
ing" (his  two  favorite  words)  letter  from 
summer  camp  can  be  found — unless  you're 
willing  to  shell  out  anywhere  from  $200 
to  $2000  for  one  of  the  20-odd  copies 
available  online  of  the  pirated  editon  of 
Salinger's  "complete  uncollected  short 
stories."  This  nutty  letter  has  a  spirit  and 
style  as  unique  as  Holden  Caulfield's  and  it 
makes  fans  like  myself  want  to  read  more 
about  Buddy,  Zooey,  Franny,  and  all  the 
other  Glasses.  For  40-plus  years  readers 
have  been  waiting  for  the  other  hand  to 
clap,  and  now,  sad  as  it  seems,  they're 
waiting  for  the  author  to  die,  assuming 
that  not  until  then  will  the  world  see  the 
book  or  books  he's  been  working  on  all 
this  time. 


Getting  Around  In  It 

Needless  to  say,  reading  in,  or  even  flip- 
ping through,  The  Complete  New  Yorker 
isn't  as  comfortable  as  reading  a  book, 
though  I  suppose  if  you  have  a  laptop 
you  can  stretch  out  in  a  hammock  or  on 
a  couch  and  enjoy  yourself.  Even  so,  you 
need  to  be  patient  and  persistent.  For  one 
thing,  the  package  is  necessarily  unwieldy, 
and  the  book  inside  the  covers  is  attached 
in  a  way  that  makes  it  difficult  to  read  with- 
out forcibly  detaching  it,  which  seems  like 
a  violation  of  the  packaging.  Unless  you 
download  the  whole  set,  which  requires 
either  Windows  2000  and  XP  or  Mac  OS 
X  10.3,  not  to  mention  750  MB  hard  drive 
space  and  1024  x  768  minimum  screen 
resolution,  you  need  to  change  disks  when- 
ever you  want  to  surf  between  decades.  So 
far  1  prefer  to  browse  by  cover;  you  click 
on  the  one  for  the  date  you  want  from  a 
page  displaying  the  front  covers  for  a  par- 
ticular year  and  it  shows  you  the  contents 
along  with  an  abstract  of  key  words;  there 
are  varying  levels  of 
magnification    you 
can  use  for  reading; 
you  can  see  either 
two  pages  in  one  go 
(via  the  flip  mode), 
the  way  you  would  if 
you  were  holding  the 
issue  in  your  hands, 
or  you  can  browse 
page  by  page,  back- 
wards or  forwards, 
with  a  click  of  the 
up  or  down  keys  on 
your  keyboard.  The 
few  times  I've  tried 
to  search  using  the 
index    have    been 
somewhat  frustrat- 
ing since  the  docu- 
mentation seems  less 
thorough  than  you 
would  expect  for  so 
famously  detail-ori- 
ented a  publication, 
although   this   may 
well  be  simply  a  mat- 
ter of  getting  used  to 
the  system.  The  New  Yorker  website  offers 
detailed  help. 

Then  and  Now 
If  you  start  your  tour  from  the  begin- 
ning, in  February  1925,  you'll  notice  by 
the  spring  of  that  year  a  drastic  falling  off 
in  the  number  of  ads,  and  a  correspond- 
ing dip  in  the  page  count  to  a  mere  24. 
According  to  Genius  in  Disguise,  Thomas 
Kunkel's  biography  of  New  Yorker  editor 
Harold  Ross,  the  situation  was  so  bleak 
that  Ross  and  his  partners  decided  to  "kill 
the  magazine"  at  a  meeting  at  the  Princ- 
eton Club,  of  all  places.  Fortunately,  they 
changed  their  minds  a  day  later,  planning 
to  limp  through  the  summer  and  hold  their 
best  material  in  reserve  for  a  big  push  in 
the  fall.  By  July  finances  were  so  stretched 
that  the  cover  of  one  issue  had  to  be  print- 


ed in  black  and  white.  A  few  months  later 
things  picked  up  in  a  big  way,  thanks  to 
popular  features  such  as  "Why  We  Go  to 
Cabarets:  A  Post-Deubtante  Explains" 
and  new  columns  like  "On  and  Off  the 
Avenue,"  which  appealed  to  shoppers  and 
attracted  ads  from  Saks  and  B.  Altman's. 
By  December  the  page  count  was  up  to 
56  and  French  perfumes  and  luxury  auto- 
mobiles were  among  the  products  being 
advertised. 

Now  behold  the  latest  incarnation,  which 
just  landed  on  our  doorstep.  While  the 
baseball-diamond  front  cover  of  April  3, 
2006,  looks  at  first  glance  as  if  it  could 
have  served  in  April  3,  1926,  you'll  notice 
that  all  the  players  on  the  field  are  on  the 
same  scale  except  the  left  fielder,  a  ste- 
roid-swollen monster  meant,  of  course,  to 
represent  Barry  Bonds.  The  cover's  title  is 
"Bigger  Than  the  Game."  And  inside  the 
new  issue  you  have  The  Talk  of  the  Town 
talking  about  the  "construct  of  delusion" 
otherwise  known  as  the  invasion  of  Iraq. 
You  also  have  pieces  on  poverty,  radical 
Muslims,  and  you  have  Princeton  poet 
C.K.  Williams's  searing  "Cassandra,  Iraq," 
a  topical  poem  that,  like  the  best  poetry, 
transcends  its  topic.  It's  safe  to  say  that  the 
original  editors,  who  pledged  in  the  first  is- 
sue "to  be  gay,  humorous,  satirical,  but  to 
be  more  than  a  jester,"  would  find  recent 
cover  art  well  on  the  wild  side  of  mere  sat- 
ire. The  February  27  cover,  for  instance, 
shows  the  President  and  Vice  President  in 
Brokeback  Mountain  attire,  clearly  up  to 
no  good  as  Vice  holds  his  smoking  gun. 
Not  a  bad  day's  work  for  one  cover:  to 
suggest  in  a  single  amusing  yet  sinister 
image  the  recklessness  of  the  current  ad- 
ministration; a  popular  movie  with  a  theme 
sure  to  offend  the  anti-same-sex-marriage 
lobby;  and  the  cowboy  role-playing  of  the 
president  who  promised  to  bring  in  Osama 
bin  Laden  "Dead  or  Alive." 

Two  Days,  Two  Covers 

The  only  two  New  Yorker  covers  I  ever 
saved  were  atypical,  I  suppose.  They 
weren't  witty  or  playful  or  even  par- 
ticularly colorful.  They  just  happened  to 
coincide  with  my  mood  on  two  significant 
occasions.  My  parents  had  both  been  as- 
piring writers  who  dreamed  of  one  day 
placing  a  story  in  The  New  Yorker.  For 
as  far  back  as  I  can  remember  we  had  a 
folding  screen  decorated  with  covers  of  the 
magazine  that  reflected  the  dream  (unreal- 
ized) of  one  day  seeing  something  they'd 
written  in  its  pages.  The  first  cover  I  saved, 
from  the  issue  of  December  18, 1978,  the 
day  my  mother  died,  shows  light  flooding 
through  the  great  windows  of  Grand  Cen- 
tral Station;  the  second  one,  for  April  14, 
1986,  the  day  my  father  died,  shows  an 
empty  chair,  conveying  a  mood  not  unlike 
the  other,  except  instead  of  the  image  of 
rays  of  light  pourjng  down  on  the  business 
of  daily  life,  the  suggestion  is  simply  that 
someone  who  had  been  sitting  in  the  chair 
was  no  longer  there.

On  her  first  visit  to  the 
library  since  its  renovation, 
Ms.  Raboteau  welcomed  her 
father,  mother,  stepmother, 
and    younger    brother    and 


that  The  Professor's  Daugh- 
ter is  not  a  memoir.  "The

recalled  the  encouragement 
she  had  as  a  student  in  the 
Princeton  schools:  "1  was 
always  told  by  my  teachers 
that  I  was  good  at  writing," 
she  said,  "and  I  feel  lucky  that 
I  am  doing  the  thing  I'm  most 
talented  at." 

For  her  first  book,  Ms. 
Raboteau  said  that  she  fol- 
lowed the  advice  to  write 
about  what  you  know.  She  has 
woven  her  experiences  as  the 
daughter  of  Princeton  Univer- 
sity   Professor    of    Religion, 


puzzle  of  her  identity  so  dis- 
turbing and  the  stock  answer- 
"My  mother  is  white,  and  my 
father  is  black"  so  unsatisfac- 
tory that  she  set  out  to  tackle 
the  issue  at  a  deeper  level. 
Seven  years  in  the  making. 
The  Professor's  Daughter  is 
the  result. 

Ms.  Raboteau  now  lives  in 
Harlem,  to  which  she  recently 
moved  from  Brooklyn  She 
feels  more  comfortable  living 
in  ethnically  and  racially 
diverse  neighborhoods.  Of  her 
life  in  Brooklyn,  she  has  said: 
"  Every  time  I  walk  my  dog  I 
hear  a  dozen  languages  spo- 
ken. Isn't  that  incredible?  It 
cultures  me,  like  a  pearl. 
Where  else  would  1  have  such 
opportunity  to  be  a  citizen  of 
the  world? 

Because  of  the  light  color  of 
her  skin,   Ms.    Raboteau  has 


Reality  was  the  point  of  depar- 
ture for  making  huge  imagina- 
tive leaps,"  she  said. 

Before  reading  from  the 
novel's  first  chapter,  Ms. 
Raboteau    spoke    about    the

THE  PROFESSOR'S  DAUGHTER:  Emily  Raboteau  was  moved  to  write  a  work    en 
of  fiction  based  on  her  life  growing  up  in  Princeton  as  the  daughter  of  an 
African-American  father  and  a  white  mother. 


"What  are  you?'   is  not  an

she  reported,  "a  hairdresser

Like  her  character  Emma,    lege,  she  found  the  recurring  occasionally   ra.sed   her  eyes 

from    her    text    and    smiled 
toward  the  place  where  her 
mother    Katherine    Murtaugh 
was  sitting  in  the  audience. 
The  brief  connection  seemed 
to  acknowledge  those  points 
of  convergence  in  the  novel 
where  fiction  met  memoir.  As 
when,  for  example,  her  char- 
acter   Emma    was    describing 
her  mother's  fondness  for  buy- 
ing   second-hand-store    furni- 
ture and  again  when  Emma 
confronted  with  the  chaos  of 
home    reported    that    "her 
mother   wasn't   a    disciplined 
housekeeper." 

During  the  question  and 
answer  session  that  followed, 
Ms.  Raboteau  was  asked 
about  the  novel's  Impact  upon 
her  parents.  "On  hearing 
about  the  book,  the  parents  of 
a  friend  said  'Oh,  Emily's  poor 
parents,'  as  If  I  had  written  an 
expose  of  my  family,"  she 
laughed,  but  admitted  that  it 
was  such  a  worry  for  her  that 
she  had  sent  each  of  them  the 
draft.  "I  was  concerned  about 
how  my  family  would  react  but 
I  didn't  want  that  anxiety  to 


censor  my  process.  I  wanted 
to  write  the  book  I  wanted  to 
read  as  a  teenager  (the  one 
that  didn't  exist).  I  wanted  to 
honor  my  family." 

She  was  also  asked  about 
the  scene  in  the  novel  where 
Emma  is  offt-n-d  <t  bl.uk  doll 
for  her  birthday.  The  store 
where  Emma  and  her  mother

they  are  told,  black  dolls  are

Invites  Participants  to  Join  a  New  Project 

"Crossing  Borders  with  Literature" 
a  Project  Across  Municipal  Boundaries 

The  project's  purpose  is  to  promote  deeper  understanding  across  communities. 

using  literature,  specifically  the  short  story,  as  an  opportunity  to  stimulate 

dialogue  in  groups  that  cross  urban/suburban  boundaries  within  Mercer  County. 

Sponsored  by  the  Princeton  Area  Community  Foundation,  programs  in  which 

Trenton  residents  join  residents  from  the  surrounding  suburbs  will  be  offered  In 

variety  of  Trenton  locations.  Each  program  will  consist  of  a  series  of  eight-week. 

90-minute,  seminar-style  discussions,  meeting  once  a  week. 

The  beauty  and  richness  of  the  literature  is  matched  only  by  the  excitement 

and  lively  dynamic  created  by  the  participants.  It  is  hard  to  Imagine  not  being 

touched  and  changed  by  the  compelling  experience  of  diverse  individuals 

discussing  both  the  literary  story  and  their  life  story.

^  the    novel,    the    black    doll 
g  "didn't  seem  as  good." 
N     Ms.  Raboteaux  played  with 
m'  black  and  white  dolls.  She  had 
=^a  black  Cabbage  Patch  Kid 
cl  and  a  white  one.  She  had  a 
"*.  black    Disco    Barbie    and    a 
£  white   Country  Western   Bar- 
g  bie.  Her  favorite  doll,  howev- 
£j  er.  was  a  rag  doll  with  blue 
g  gingham  skin  and  blue  yarn 
5  hair,  which  she  recently  res- 
r  cued  from  her  mother's  attic. 
^  The  doll   was  so  covered  in 
-  stains  that  she  had  to  be  put 
o  through  the  washer.  Spruced 
uj  up  with  her  tattered  pinafore 
z  patched,  the  doll  now  sits  on 
E  Ms.  Raboteau's  bed  and  will 
*".  be   the   subject   of   her   next 
S  book,  a  children's  book  titled 
a.  Christina  Blue.  Her  father  Is 
°  the  rain  and  her  mother  is  a 
z  cloud  and  she  lives  in  the  sky. 
o     Ms.  Raboteau  said  that  she 
H  feels  privileged  to  have  grown 
up   in   Princeton   where   she 
received  an   excellent   educa- 
tion and  encouragement.  It's  a 
privilege    that    she    does    not 
take  for  granted.  Recalling  a 
mentoring  program  for  Inner- 
city  girls  aged  from  7  to  12 
that  she  participated  in  when 
she  was  a  student  at  Yale,  she 
described  the  sadness  of  meet- 
ing one  of  the  girls  later  and 
finding  out  that  of  the  eight, 
only  one  had  made  It  all  the 
way  through  high  school.  Sev- 
eral already  had   babies  and 
one  was  dead.  "The  odds  are 
so     staggeringly     stacked 
against  them,"  she  said. 

In  addition  to  being  the 
story  of  Emma's  struggle  for 
Identity,     The    Professor's 


Daughter  is  also  a  critique  of 
racism.  Emma's  grandfather 
was  brutally  murdered  and  the 
book  tackles  the  historical  leg- 
acy of  lynching.  That  The  Pro- 
fessor's Daughter  has  been 
placed  In  the  African  Ameri- 
can Studies  section,  however, 
rather  in  the  new  books  sec- 
tion of  most  book  stores,  is  a 
"ghetto-lzation  of  literature" 
that  Ms.  Raboteau  finds  unfor- 
tunate as  well  as  ironic.  "I 
don't  think  of  this  as  a  black 
book  or  a  work  of  black  fic- 
tion," she  said. 

The  professors  daughter  is 
now    a    professor    herself: 
"When  my  students  ask  me, 
"How  do  I  write  a  story?"  she 
has  said,  "I  tell  them  to  begin 
with  a  character.  I  tell  them  to 
care    about    that    character, 
even  If  she's  rotten;  to  make 
her   real   by   giving   her   the 
attributes   of   a    person    from 
their  life;  to  imagine  her  prob- 
lem, then  to  make  the  prob- 
lem grow.  I  tell  them  to  make 
her  act,  and  if  she  is  brave,  or 
cowardly,    or    confused,    or 
enraged,  or  In  love,  to  convey 
this  through  her  actions.  I  tell 
them  to  allow  her  to  speak  in 
her  own  voice.  I  tell  them  they 
don't  need  to  know  where  the 
story    will    end    when    they 
begin.  I  don't  know  any  other 
way." 

Ms.  Raboteau  admires  writ- 
ers who  first  and  foremost  cre- 


his  insightful  advice:  "You 
don't  want  to  make  art  about 
your  color,  your  race,  your 
culture  or  your  community. 
You  want  to  use  your  commu- 
nity, your  culture  and  your 
race  to  make  a  piece  of  art." 

Ms.  Raboteau  said  that  she 
feels  much  more  comfortable 
in  her  skin  after  writing  The 
Professor's  Daughter.

Warning:  Marriage  in  Trouble! 

By  the  Rev.  Peter  K.  Stimpsi  m 

QUESTION:  The  divorce  rate 
scares  me.  My  wife  and  I  have 
been  married  for  10  years,  but 
all  our  friends  are  splitting  up. 
What  are  some  of  the  warning 
signs  of  a  marriage  in  trouble? 

ANSWER:  Your  question  is  good, 
but  your  focus  is  bad.  Let's  not 
only  look  at  what  is  wrong,  but 
also  at  what  to  do  to  make  it  right, 
as  "prevention  is  worth  a  pound 
of  cure". 

1.  BEING  TOO  INDEPENDENT: 
The  Rev.  Peter  K.  Stimpson  |fs  boring  being  married  to  Super- 
man. He  doesn't  need  anyone.  As  no  man  is  an  island, 
learn  to  love  yourself  enough  to  ask  for  help. 

2.  BEING  SELFISH:  Love  is  not  competition.  If  you  do 
not  give,  then  you  will  not  receive.  Unless  you  feed  the 
emotional  needs  of  your  wife,  she  will  starve,  and  be  un- 
able and  unwilling  to  feed  you. 

3.  BEING  JEALOUS:  Love  is  a  quality,  not  a  quantity. 
The  time  given  by  your  wife  to  your  children,  parents  and 
friends  does  not  decrease  what  you  get;  it  only  increases 
her  ability  to  love  you  all  the  more. 

4.  BEING  VENGEFUL:  As  your  goal  is  intimacy  vs.  vic- 
tory, holding  grudges  or  throwing  a  litany  of  past  mistakes 
at  your  wife  only  pushes  her  away  from  you.  Giving  her 
another  chance  to  grow  gives  you  another  chance  to  be 
loved. 

5.  BEING  SECRETIVE:  The  goal  is  to  be  one,  not  two. 
Not  sharing  your  worries  and  whereabouts  erodes  trust. 
Separating  income  and  bills  into  "his"  and  "her"  separate 
piles  leads  to  separate  lives. 

6.  NOT  TALKING:  Being  too  busy  to  talk  means  a  grow- 
ing chasm  filled  with  alienation  and  loneliness.  Giving  a 
little  to  each  other  now  will  save  you  from  spending  a  lot 
of  time  later  with  a  divorce  lawyer. 

7.  NOT  CHOOSING:  Trying  to  please  your  mother  and 
your  wife  gets  you  stuck  in  the  middle.  Put  your  wife  first, 
and  she  will  put  you  first. 

8.  NOT  FLEXIBLE:  Rigidly  forcing  the  "same  old,  same 
old"  down  your  wife's  throat  may  win  the  battle,  but  you 
will  lose  the  war.  Loosen  up,  and  realize  that  there  are 
two  sides  to  any  argument,  and  that  surprisingly  you  may 
just  be  wrong! 

9.  NOT  ROMANTIC:  When  was  the  last  time  that  you 
gave  your  wife  flowers,  took  her  out  to  dinner,  or  told  her 
that  you  love  her?  Hold  her  hand,  give  her  a  hug  and  kiss. 
A  little  effort  will  give  you  a  big  result! 

10.NOT  PRAYING:  The  old  saying  "the  family  that  prays 
together  stays  together"  points  to  our  need  for  spiritual 
insight  in  a  world  blinded  by  secularism.  Take  your  wife  to 
church.

TUNNEL  VISION 

If  you  are  experiencing  prolonged 
pain,  tingling,  and/or  numbness  in 
your  hand  and  wrist,  you  may  have 
Carpal  Tunnel  Syndrome.  This 
condition  is  caused  by  compression 
of  the  median  nerve,  which  enters 
the  hand  through  a  narrow  tunnel 
formed  by  bones  and  ligaments  If 
tendons  in  the  carpal  tunnel  become 
inflamed  and  swell,  they  can 
squeeze  the  nerve  to  produce  the 
typical  symptoms  of  Carpal  Tunnel 
Syndrome.  It  is  important  to  treat 
this  condition  early  on,  as  prompt 
treatment  can  help  avert  potential 
long-term  problems  such  as  loss  of 
feeling  in  some  fingers  and 
permanent  weakness  of  the  thumb. 
Studies  show  that  frequent  use  of  a 
computer  mouse,  but  not  keyboard 
use,  might  raise  the  risk  of  Carpal 
Tunnel  Syndrome. 

Carpal  Tunnel  Syndrome  is  the 
occupational  disease  of  the  21st 
century.  Do  you  have  it?  The  drug- 
free  chiropractic  approach  of 
releasing  nerve  and  spine  slr< 
freeing  your  body  of  vertebral 
subluxations  has  been  a  blessing  to 
millions  afflicted  with  this 
condition.  At  DEITCH  FAMILY

Arts  Council  Presents 
Writers  Block  Revisited' 

The  Arts  Council  of  Prince- 
ton will  feature  a  discussion 
titled  "Writers  Block  Revisit- 
ed" by  "Writers  Block"  orga- 
nizers Peter  Soderman,  Alan 
Goodheart,  and  Kevin  Wilkes 
at  the  conTEMPORARY  Arts 
Center  at  7:30  p.m.  on  Thurs- 
day April  6.  The  discussion  is 
part  of  an  ongoing  Architec- 
ture and  the  Arts  lecture 
series.  Admission  is  free. 

In  the  summer  of  2005, 
after  forming  a  group  called 
"Princeton  Occasions,"  the 
three  men  began  planning  an 
elaborate  architectural  and 
sculptural  garden  in  a  vacant 
lot  located  within  a  block  in 
each  direction  of  the  Prince- 
ton Public  Library,  the  YM/ 
YWCA,  Palmer  Square,  and 
the  Witherspoon  neighbor- 
hood. 

The  project,  called  Writer's 
Block,  consisted  of  a  series  of 
12  "Follies,"  or  sculptural 
installations,  created  by 
architect/writer/builder  teams. 
A  site  design  team  comprised 
of  architects,  landscape  archi- 
tects, and  horriculturalists  was 
responsible  for  the  overall  lay- 
out and  landscape  compo- 
nents of  the  plan.  Each  of  the 
three  organizers  will  describe 
his  experience  with  the  project 
and  the  challenges  of  making 
it  a  reality. 

During  Thursday's  discus- 
sion, the  three  will  also  speak 
about  Quark  Park,  their  new 
project  Involving  science  and 
art.  The  new  project,  planned 
for  summer  2006,  will  consist 
of  teams  of  scientists  and 
sculptors  working  with  land- 
scape architects  and  builder  to 
create  a  new  art/science  gar- 
den. 

The  program  will  take  place 


REVISITING  THE  WRITERS  BLOCK:  This  John 
James  Rivera/Paul  Sigmund  "folly"  was  among  the 
12  sculptural  installations  making  up  the  short- 
lived architectural  and  sculptural  garden  known 
as  the  Writers  Block.  Organizers  Peter  Soderman, 
Alan  Goodheart,  and  Kevin  Wilkes  will  take  part  in 
a  discussion  titled  "Writers  Block  Revisited"  at 
the  conTEMPORARY  Arts  Center  at  7:30  p.m.  on 
Thursday  April  6.  


at  the  conTEMPORARY  Arts

THEATER  REVIEW 


The  Goat  or  Who  Is  Sylvia? 


M 


Edward  Albee's  "The  Goat"  Explores  Deepest  Societal  Taboos; 
Intense  Domestic  Drama  Delivers  Plentiful  Humor  and  Horror 

adults  of  their  parents'  generation  in  seri- 
ous situations,  but  this  company  of  four  is 
consistently  on  target  and  credible. 


artin,  about  to  be  interviewed  for  a 
TV  show  called  People  Who  Mat- 
ter, is,  at  fifty  years  old,  at  the  top 
of  his  game.  He  has  just  won  the  Pritzker 
Prize,  architecture's  highest  award,  and 
has  been  chosen  to  design  a  two  hundred 
billion  dollar  World  City  of  the  future. 

Martin,  his  vibrant,  adoring  wife  Ste- 
vie,  and  their  gay  son  Billy  live  a  life  that 
exudes  urbanity,  sophistication,  and  suc- 
cess. 

The  TV  interviewer  Ross  is  an  old  friend 
and  former  schoolmate  of  Martin.  These 
are  well  educated,  refined  human  beings. 
Their  dialogue  is  witty  and  sophisticated, 
as  they  play  games  with  language  and 
make  jokes  out  of  pointing  out  mixed 
metaphors  and  correcting  each  others 
grammar. 

But,  as  always  in  Edward  Albee's  world, 
the  harmonious  surfaces  are  brittle  and 
deceptive,  and  it  is  not  far  into  the  first  of 
three  uninterrupted  scenes  of  The  Goat  or 
Who  Is  Sylvia?  (2002),  currently  playing 
at  Theatre  Intime,  that  Martin— distracted, 
forgetful,  troubled — is  sharing  with  Ross 
the  secret  of  an  extra-marital  relationship 
he  has  been  carrying  on  for  six  months. 
At  this  point,  the  play  and  the  dynam- 
ics in  the  theater  become  very  strange 
indeed.  Love  triangles  and  marital  infidel- 
ity are  hardly  new  subjects  for  theater,  but 
here  the  object  of  Martin's  affections  hap- 
pens to  be  a  goat — yes,  an  actual  barnyard 
goat,  and  neither  the  audience  nor  the 
other  characters  in  the  play  quite  know 
how  to  respond. 

On  one  level,  it  seems  like  a  good  joke, 
and  those  in  the  audience  who  know 
what's  coming  before  Martin  finally  works 
up  to  the  moment  when  he  shows  Ross 
a  photo  of  the  beloved  Sylvia,  are  smil- 
ing knowingly,  chuckling  to  themselves, 
in  on  the  punch  line  that  Is  soon  to  shock 
Ross  and  the  unknowing  members  of  the 
audience. 

At  the  same  time,  however,  there  Is 
something  unsettling  here.  Martin  is  an 
intelligent,  serious,  sensitive,  admirable 
character.  In  this  scene,  and  In  the  second 
scene  when  Martin  confronts  his  wife  and 
their  17-year-old  son,  the  laughter  begins 
to  catch  in  the  throat.  The  nervous  guf- 
faws are  more  sporadic.  Martin  is  truly  in 
love  with  this  goat — and  also  with  his  wife. 
The  family  crisis  is— not  quite  believable, 
perhaps,  but  real.  Mr.  Albee  does  not  hold 
back  in  exploiting  the  opportunity  for  hu- 
morous word  play  about  sex  with  animals, 
but  deeper  purposes  and  a  prevailing  seri- 
ousness become  more  and  more  apparent 
as  the  play  progresses. 
Stevie  is,  understandably,  outraged  and 


angry.  She  alternates  between  quiet  deter- 
mination to  come  to  terms  with  the  baf- 
fling new  realities  of  her  life  with  Martin 
and  loud  fury.  Billy,  also  torn  between 
extremes  of  despair  and  anger,  retreats  to 
his  room  for  much  of  scene  two,  emerging 
in  the  final  scene,  after  his  mother's  exit, 
to  attempt  some  sort  of  understanding 
and  reconciliation  with  his  father. 

The  language  is  raw.  The  subject  mat- 
ter is  not  for  children,  or  for  anyone  who 
is  prone  to  squeamishness  in  the  face  of 
the  most  basic  taboos  of  our  society.  But 
besides  amusing  and  shocking  his  audi- 
ence, and  forcing  us  to  pay  attention  to 
subjects  that  are  forbidden  even  in  the 
most  liberal  spheres  of  our  society,  what 
is  Mr.  Albee  up  to  here?  What  is  this  play 
really  about? 


bring  you  down  with  me!" 

Billy,  who  has  spent  considerable  emo- 
tional and  psychological  energy  in  recon- 
ciling his  homosexuality  with  his  father's 
deep-seated  disapproval,  overcomes  his 
initial  repulsion  in  learning  of  his  father's 
secret  to  allow  his  love  for  his  father  to 
bring  acceptance  and  forgiveness. 

It  is  in  the  character  of  Billy,  apparently 
so  named  to  suggest  some  correspondence 
with  the  goat,  that  Albee's  play  most  di- 
rectly leads  the  audience  to  consider  the 
taboo  of  homosexuality  in  comparison  to 
The  Goat's  more  immediate  issue  of  bes- 
tiality. In  observing  the  shocked  reactions 
to  the  revelation  of  Martin's  "problem" 
(which  he  and  the  playwright  refuse  to 
characterize  as  inherently  a  problem),  the 
audience  recognizes  many  reactions — of 


FAMILY  CRISIS:  Stevie  (Ashley  Johnson,  left)  has  just  read  a  letter  describing  her  husband's 
infidelity  (with  a  goat!),  as  husband  Martin  (Joshua  Williams,  right)  looks  on  in  despair,  and 
son  Billy  (Shawn  Fennel!)  expresses  his  shock  and  anger  in  Theatre  Intime's  production  of 
Edward  Albee's  'The  Goat  or  Who  is  Sylvia?' — playing  at  Theatre  Intime  through  April  8. 


The  Goat  or  Who  Is  Sylvia?  seems, 
most  essentially,  to  be  about  tolerance 
for  our  fellow  human  beings  in  all  their 
human,  even  aberrant  behavior.  As  the 
four  characters  grapple  with  the  fact  of 
Martin's  love  of  the  goat,  they  respond 
in  different  ways.  The  liberal,  hypocriti- 
cal Ross,  who  is  willing  to  condone  all 
sorts  of  other  sordid  sexual  activities  and 
breaches  of  business  ethics,  is  ruthless 
and  judgmental  towards  his  oldest  friend. 
He  is  unable  to  show  any  understanding, 
sympathy,  or  even  tolerance  for  Martin's 
predicament.  Stevie  is  too  hurt  and  angry 
to  see  beyond  her  need  for  revenge.  "You 
have  brought  me  down,  and,  Christ!,  I'll 


spouse,  family,  and  friends — that  are  simi- 
lar to  typical  homophobic  responses  to 
the  coming  out  of  a  gay  man. 

Ultimately  this  play  registers  an  ap- 
peal for  tolerance,  love,  and  human  un- 
derstanding, even  in  the  face  of  society's 
strictest  attitudes  and  taboos,  even  when, 
as  Stevie  says,  the  behavior  in  question  is 
outside  "the  rules  of  the  game." 

Under  the  able  direction  of  Princeton 
University  sophomore  Whitney  Mosery, 
the  undergraduate  Intime  cast  takes  on 
this  demanding  material  with  maturity, 
energy  and  focus.  Twenty-year-olds,  no 
matter  how  talented,  are  not  always  able 
to  make  the  stretch  to  portray  convincing 


Ashley  Johnson  as  Stevie  and  Joshua 
Williams  as  Martin  are  especially  strong 
and  effective  in  working  through  the  wide 
range  of  emotions  that  this  wife  and  hus- 
band experience  during  the  course  of  the 
play.  Martin  in  his  bewilderment  and  iso- 
lation and  Stevie  in  her  pain  and  anguish 
are  powerfully  affecting  and  memorable. 

Shawn  Fennell's  Billy,  awkward,  an- 
gry, struggling  with  his  own  identity  and 
with  his  father's  shocking  news,  portrays 
forcefully  this  highly  vulnerable  and  sym- 
pathetic teenager,  though  the  clarity  of  his 
diction  suffered  a  couple  of  lapses  on  the 
evening  I  attended.  Max  Staller  as  Ross, 
somewhat  less  intense  and  somewhat  less 
believable  in  his  age  stretch,  is  nonethe- 
less an  effective  foil  to  Martin  and  a  strong 
supporting  figure. 

Mr.  Williams  has  also  designed  the  well- 
appointed,  detailed  living  room  set,  which 
fittingly  manifests  the  affluence  of  Martin 
and  Stevie.  Decorations  include  an  array 
of  art  work  with  a  suggestive  flower  mo- 
tif and  an  assortment  of  glass  bowls  and 
ceramic  jars  for  Stevie  to  shatter  as  the 
conflict  heats  up. 

Ms.  Mosery  keeps  the  pace  moving 
briskly,  finds  the  humor  and  the  poignan- 
cy in  this  play,  and  succeeds  in  keeping 
the  tension  taut.  Mr.  Albee's  dialogue  at 
times  moves  slowly  or  repetitively,  par- 
ticularly as  characters  struggle  to  express 
the  inexpressible,  and  his  extreme  plot  at 
times  strains  credulity.  Amidst  the  humor, 
however,  Ms.  Mosery  and  company  never 
fail  to  take  this  play  and  its  important  is- 
sues seriously. 

ot  just  poor  Sylvia,  but  Billy,  and 
Martin  too,  are  apparently  scape- 
goats for  the  Sins  of  an  intolerant, 
convention-bound  society.  Edward  Albee, 
winner  of  three  Pulitzer  Prizes  and  an 
additional  Tony  Award  for  this  one,  here 
again — in  the  tradition  of  Who's  Afraid 
of  Virginia  Woolf?  (1963),  Tiny  Alice 
(1964)  and  other  great  plays  before  and 
since— dares  to  ask  the  important,  difficult 
questions  and  probe  the  dark  sides  of  our 
lives  and  our  world.  Bravo  to  Ms.  Mosery 
and  Theatre  Intime  for  confronting,  so 
bravely  and  successfully,  this  important, 
difficult  work.

"Dr.  Jekyll  and  Mr.  Hyde" 
At  State  Theatre  Tonight 

New  Brunswick's  State  The- 
atre will  present  an  original 
version  of  the  Jekyll  and  Hyde 
story  this  evening  when  it  pre- 
sents the  Aquila  Theatre  Com- 
pany's production  of  The 
Strange  Case  of  Dr.  Jekyll  & 
Mr.  Hyde  at  7:30  p.m. 

Originally  a  novella  by  Rob- 
ert Louis  Stevenson,  Dr. 
Jekyll  and  Mr.  Hyde  tells  the 
suspenseful  tale  of  a  man  who 
uses  a  potion  to  switch 
between  two  very  different 
personalities.  When  first  per- 
formed on  stage,  Victorian 
women  were  rumored  to  faint 
at  the  sight  of  the  evil  Mr. 
Hyde. 

The  Strange  Case  of  Dr. 
Jekyll  &  Mr.  Hyde,  directed 
by  Brian  Parsons,  Is  presented 
as  a  play-within-a-play.  Aquila 
Theatre  Company's  produc- 
tion tells  both  the  story  of  Dr. 
Jekyll  and  Mr.  Hyde,  as  writ- 
ten in  1886  by  Stevenson,  and 


The  Aquila  Theater  Com- 
pany is  visiting  the  State  The- 
atre as  part  of  an  annual 
multl-clty  tour.  Founded  In 
London  in  1991  by  artistic 
director  PeteT  Meineck,  the 
company  is  now  a  major  theat- 
rical player  in  New  York  City. 
This  spring  it  will  collaborate 
with  Lincoln  Center  on  a  spe- 
cial educational  production  of 
Shakespeare's  Twelfth  Night 
for  New  York  City  area 
schools. 

A  behind-the-scenes  look  at 
the  creative  processes  used  to 
bring  the  story  of  Jekyll,  Hyde, 
and  Mansfield  to  the  stage  will

The  play  will  be  directed  by 
Hal  Brooks  and  star  Michael 
Mllligan. 

A  discussion  with  the  play- 
wright and  Mr.  Mllligan,  mod- 
erated by  Michael  Cadden  of 
Princeton's  Program  In  The- 
ater and  Dance,  will  follow 
each  performance. 

A  finalist  for  the  Pulitzer 
Prize,  Mr.  Eno's  wry,  sardonic 
monologue  reflects  on  the 
beauties  and  terrors  of  life  as 
an  ordinary  man  muses  on 
childhood,  yearning,  disap- 
pointment, and  loss. 

Thorn  Pain  (based  on  noth- 
ing) premiered  In  2004  at  the 
Pleasance  Theatre  In  Edin- 
burgh, Scotland,  then  trans- 
ferred to  the  Soho  Theatre  m 
London  later  that  year.  In 
Edinburgh,  the  play  won  the 
Fringe  First  Award  and  the 
HeTald  Angel  Award,  and  was 
cited  by  The  Guardian  as  the 
best  play  at  the  Fringe. 
Reviewing  the  New  York  pro-

described  the  play  as  "one  of

President  Mordechai  Rozanskil 
in  announcing  the  gift.  "Wei 
are  profoundly  grateful  for  her 
extraordinary    generosity    in 
supporting    our    Westminster 
program  in  this  way." 

Once  constructed,  the  new 
academic  complex  will  offer 
Westminster  all  the  functional 
and  technological  advantages 
of  a  21st  century  facility,  Mr. 
Rozanski  added.  The  complex, 
which  Is  expected  to  cost  $13 
million,  will  contain  large 
rehearsal  and  performance 
spaces,  as  well  as  classrooms 
and  studios. 

A  recipient  of  an  honorary 
Doctor  of  Humanities  degree 
from  Westminster  in  2003, 
Mrs.  Cullen  served  on  West- 
minster's board  of  trustees 
from  1983  to  1989.  She  is  a 
graduate  of  the  New  Jersey 
College  for  Women,  now  Dou- 
glass College  of  Rutgers  Uni- 
versity, where  she  majored  in 
English,  history,  and  dramatic 
arts. 

"I've  traveled  extensively 
throughout  my  life,"  said  Mrs. 
Cullen,  "and  no  matter  where 
I've  been — whether  at  the 
Presbyterian  Church  In  Egypt 
or  the  chapel  at  West  Point— 
I've  encountered  a 
Westminster  graduate.  They 
are  undoubtedly  the  best." 

"At   the   core   of  Westmin- 


ster's program  is  a  commit- 
ment to  service  through 
music."  said  Robert  L.  Annls. 
Westminster's  director  and 
dean.  "Marion  Cullen.  through 
this  generous  gift,  has  enabled 
us  to  continue  to  give  the  next 
generation  of  music  leaders 
their  voice,  a  voice  that  will 
serve  and  inspire  the  world."

scenery  and  offers  listeners  an 
opportunity  to  hear  from 
many  soloists.

Ballroom  Dancing  Helps  Reduce  Juvenile  Delinquency 

In  2005  Mad  Hot  Ballroom  recounted  the  heartwarm-  plenty  of  delectable  dance  sequences  which  frequently

in  preparation  for  an  annual 
citywlde  competition.  The 
documentary  was  inspired 
by  the  work  of  Pierre  Du-

came  up  with  the  novel 
idea  of  introducing  the  kids 
to  ballroom  dancing. 

Emphasizing  the  develop- 
ment of  confidence,  self-es- 
teem, manners  and  other 
critical  survival  skills  which 
would  serve  them  well  in 
adulthood,  Dulaine  was  so 
effective  in  bringing  the  stu- 
dio sensibility  to  the  class 
room  that  his  community 
outreach  program  currently

be  easily  eliminated  if  ev-

The  films  only  other  flaw 
is  an  overabundance  of  tight 
shots  which  deliberately 
avoid  the  skyline  in  order 
to  make  Toronto  pass  for 
New  York. 

The  movie  starts  the  night 
Pierre  is  bicycling  through 
the  neighborhood  in  a  tux- 
edo. He  comes  upon  Rock 
(Rob  Brown)  who  is  trashing 
his  high  school  principal's 
(Alfre  Woodard)  car  with  a 
golf  club  because  she  sus- 
pended him. 

Pierre  intervenes,  but

(played  by  Antonio  Banderas). 

The  cast  features  many  talented  unknowns  plus  Alfre 
Woodard,  Ray  Liotta,  and  Rob  Brown.  The  movie  marks 
the  directing  debut  of  Liz  Friedlander,  a  veteran  TV  com- 
mercial and  music  video  director  who  has  worked  with 
U2  and  Blink  182. 

Dianne  Houston  wrote  the  imaginative  script,  which 
earns  high  marks  for  interweaving  the  main  story  and  a 
variety  of  vignettes  into  a  collection  of  tales  of  personal 
triumph.  In  addition,  the  picture  treats  the  audience  to

the  door  for  them. 

ierre  sizes  up  the  situation  and  impulsively  offers  to 
teach  ballroom  dancing  at  the  school  for  free.  So 
he  begins  the  compassionate  process  of  whipping 
some  of  the  schools  worst  behaved  students  into  form 
for  the  big  competition  in  the  finale. 

Excellent  (••*%).  Rated  PG-13  for  profanity,  violence, 
and  mature  themes.  Running  time:  108  minutes.  Studio:

Sports 


|  With  Freshman  Star  McGarvie  Catching  Fire, 
|  Tiger  Women's  Lax  Leading  Ivy  League  Race 


I 


t  was  early  in  the  game  and  it  was  just 
the  second  Ivy  League  contest  of  the  sea- 
son but  Holly  McGarvie  and  her  team- 
§  mates  on  the  Princeton  University  women's 
C  lacrosse  team  knew  they  had  reached  a 
z  turning  point. 

"  Hosting  12th-ranked  Cornell  last  Sat- 
g  urday,  the  No.  8  Tigers  found  themselves 
E  trailing  4-1  and  in  danger  of  seeing  the 
•-  sizzling  Big  Red  take  control  of  the  league 
5  race. 

°  Cornell  entered  the  day  with  a  6-1  overall 
record  and  a  2-0  Ivy  mark  and  a  determina- 
tion to  snap  an  18-game  losing  streak  to 
Princeton. 

The  Tigers,  though,  woke  up  in  the  nick 
of  time,  ending  the  half  with  three  straight 
goals  including  one  by  freshman  star  Mc- 
Garvie with  just  1 :21  left  in  the  period. 

An  intense  cloudburst  accompanied  by 
wind  gusts  in  the  opening  minutes  of  the 
second  half  didn't  dampen  the  Tigers  as 
Princeton  outscored  Cornell  6-1  on  the  way 
to  a  critical  10-6  win. 


SEVEN  UP:  Princeton  University  freshman  standout  Holly  McGarvie,  left, 
races  up  the  field  last  Saturday  in  Princeton's  10-6  victory  over  Cornell. 
McGarvie  scored  two  goals  In  the  win,  capping  a  big  week  which  saw  her 
score  four  goals  and  add  an  assist  in  the  Tigers';  16-7  win  at  Columbia  last 
Wednesday.  McGarvie  was  named  the  Ivy  League  Offensive  Player  of  the 
Week  for  her  heroics.  The  Medford,  N.J.  native  will  look  to  keep  rolling 
when  the  Tigers  host  Yale  on  April  8. 


McGarvie,  who  added  a  second  goal  dur- 
ing the  Tigers'  second  half  onslaught,  ac- 
knowledged that  things  almost  got  out  of 
hand  in  the  first  half. 

"We  got  in  a  group  together  and  said  this 
is  it,"  recalled  McGarvie,  reflecting  on  a  day 
that  saw  Princeton  improve  to  4-4  overall 
and  2-0  in  Ivy  play. 

"Everybody  pulled  together.  I  think  it 
started  with  defense;  we  tightened  up.  We 
pushed  them  out  and  then  we  were  able  to 
do  our  thing  on  attack." 

The  downpour  that  hit  the  players  in  the 
second  half  seemed  to  keep  the  Tigers  roll- 
ing. "We  had  a  tie  but  we  knew  we  had  to 
come  in  the  second  half  and  play  hard," 
said  McGarvie,  a  native  of  Medford,  N.J. 
who  starred  this  past  fall  at  midfield  for  the 
Princeton  field  hockey  team. 

"When  it  started  raining  at  the  beginning 
of  the  half,  I  think  it  made  us  play  harder. 
Who  knew  when  it  was  going  to  start  thun- 
dering; we  had  to  take  the  game  into  our 
hands." 

In  McGarvie's 
view,  Princeton's 
discouraging  16 
-3  loss  to  Vir- 
ginia on  March 
25  served  as  a 
wake-up  call  for 
the  club. 

"We've  gotten 
a  fresh  start  in 
our  league  with 
a  new  set  of 
games,"  said  Mc- 
Garvie. "We're 
2-0  right  now  in 
the  new  season; 
that's  how  we're 
looking  at  it. 
We're  learning 
from  that  game 
but  we're  going 
to  move  on." 

McGarvie  has 
been  a  major 
factor  in  the  Ivy 
game  scoring  six 
goals  in  those 
two  games  after 
three  goals  in 
Princeton's  first 
six  contests. 

"1  feel  like 
it's  coming;  the 
coaches  and  the 
other  players 
have  helped  me 
feel  more  confi- 


SLICK  MOVE:  Princeton  University  sophomore  star  Katie  Lewis-Lamonica,  right,  fights  through 
a  downpour  and  the  Cornell  defense  on  her  way  to  a  two-goal  performance  in  Princeton's  10-6 
win  over  the  visiting  Big  Red  last  Saturday.  The  win  lifted  Princeton  to  4-4  on  the  season  and 
2-0  in  Ivy  League  play.  (PhmbyBiuMien/msponA,-uom 


dent,"  asserted  McGarvie,  who  now  has  1 1 
points  this  season  on  nine  goals  and  two 
assists.  "I  was  a  little  nervous  early  on;  the 
upperclassmen  really  helped  by  directing 
me  and  telling  me  what  to  do." 

Princeton  head  coach  Chris  Sailer  has 
been  impressed  by  McGarvie's  recent  play. 
"Holly  has  just  been  incredible,"  asserted 
Sailer,  who  got  three  goals  from  junior  star 
Kathleen  Miller  and  two  from  sophomore 
Katie  Lewis-Lamonica  in  the  win  over  Cor- 
nell. 

"She's  a  fighter;  she's  a  hustler;  she  plays 
with  so  much  heart  and  fire.  If  that  could 
spread  to  the  rest  of  the  team,  we'd  be  a 
pretty  good  team." 

In  Sailer's  view,  McGarvie  has  taken  her 
game  to  a  new  level  in  the  wake  of  the  sea- 
son-ending knee  injury  to  Kristin  Schwab 
in  the  loss  to  Virginia. 

"We  knew  when  Schwab  went  down  that 
we  were  going  to  need  some  other  people 
to  step  up,"  said  Sailer.  "1  think  Holly  has 
taken  that  upon  herself  and  has  elevated 
her  game  to  become  an  offensive  threat 
as  well." 

The  Tigers  showed  some  character  as 
well  as  skill  in  fighting  back  from  the  early 
deficit.  "We  just  tried  to  fire  them  up  about 
being  competitive,"  said  Sailer,  who  earned 
the  250th  win  of  her  Princeton  tenure 
with  the  Tigers'  16-7  win  at  Columbia  last 
Wednesday. 


"We  wanted  them  to  be  more  aggressive 
on  the  double  teams  on  defense.  It  was 
ugly  in  there  for  a  while  but  we  pulled  it 
out  against  a  team  that  was  dominating  us 
at  the  start;  that  shows  a  lot." 

Sailer  is  hoping  that  the  victory  can  help 
Princeton  develop  the  self-confidence  to 
be  a  consistent  force.  "It's  a  huge  win," 
said  Sailer,  whose  club  was  slated  to  play 
at  Temple  on  April  4  before  hosting  Yale 
on  April  8. 

"With  this  team,  it's  a  game-by-game 
thing.  1  know  we  have  it  in  us;  we  just  have 
to  believe  it  ourselves.  This  was  a  big,  big 
win  for  us." 

McGarvie,  for  her  part,  credited  her  expe- 
rience last  fall  on  the  Princeton's  Ivy  cham- 
pion field  hockey  team  with  helping  her  to 
develop  the  mentality  needed  to  succeed  in 
critical  situations. 

"I  learned  from  playing  the  big  games  and 
dealing  with  the  pressure  and  intensity,"  ( 
added  McGarvie,  who  was  named  the  Ivy 
League  women's  lacrosse  Offensive  Player 
of  the  Week  for  her  heroics.  "In  a  stressful 
situation,  you  need  to  take  a  deep  breath 
and  say  OK  and  get  back  into  your  zone." 

If  McGarvie  can  keep  in  the  zone  offen- 
sively, Princeton  could  cause  its  foes  a  lot 
of  stress  this  spring.

Trombino  Keeps  the  Points  Coming  in  Big  Way 
As  Princeton  Men's  Lax  Tops  Yale  in  Ivy  Opener 


Coming  into  last  Saturday's 
clash  with  Yale,  Peter  Trom- 
bino had  scored  at  least  one 
point  in  all  33  games  of  his 
career  with  the  Princeton  Uni- 
versity men's  lacrosse  team. 

Looking  to  get  the  Tigers  off 
to  a  hot  start  in  Ivy  League 
play,  Trombino  outdid  himself 
as  he  scored  six  points  on 
three  goals  and  three  assists, 
matching  his  single-game 
career  high  for  points. 

Propelled  by  Trombino's 
productive  day,  Princeton 
earned  a  12-8  win  over  the 
Bulldogs  before  a  crowd  of 
2,176  at  Class  of  1952 
Stadium. 

In  reflecting  on  the  win 
which  improved  Princeton  to 
5-2  overall  and  1-0  in  Ivy 
play,  Trombino  said  the  Tigers 
were  primed  to  take  it  to  Yale, 
which  had  stunned  Princeton 

9-8    in    last    year's    league 
opener. 
"We  were  up  for  this  game; 


we  were  well  prepared,"  said 
Trombino,  a  511,  175-pound 
attackman  who  now  has  a 
team-high  20  points  on  10 
goals  and  10  assists.  "We  put 
in  a  lot  of  hard  work  this  week 
and  we  had  a  good  game 
plan.  It  was  a  great  way  to 
start  the  Ivy  League." 

With  Princeton  struggling  to 
get  into  double  figures  in  the 
early  stages  of  the  season, 
Trombino  acknowledged  that 
the  offense  has  been  a  work  in 
progress. 

"We're  playing  well  now," 
asserted  Trombino,  the  2004 
Ivy  League  Rookie  of  the  Year 
in  men's  lacrosse.  "We  were 
switching  guys  up  and  it  took 
a  little  time  getting  used  to  it. 
I'm  playing  my  game  now  and 
it  seems  to  be  going  better." 

The  native  of  Huntington 
Station,  N.Y.  knows  that  the 
Tigers  are  depending  on  him 
for  both  point  and  leadership. 
"I've  been  here  for  three  years 
and  I  have  started  for  three 


POINT  TAKEN:  Princeton  University  junior  star 
Peter  Trombino  fires  a  shot  in  action  earlier  this 
spring.  Last  Saturday,  Trombino  matched  his 
single-game  career  high  as  he  scored  six  points 
to  help  lead  Princeton  to  a  12-8  win  over  Yale. 
Trombino  has  now  scored  in  all  34  games  of  his 
Tiger  career.  (PMobyBitiAnen/tusponAction)

years,"  said  Trombino,  a 
second-team  All-Ivy  selection 
last  season.  "I  want  to  us  to 
win;  l  want  us  to  do  well  this 
year.  I  feel  like  the  junior  and 
senior  leadership  couldn't  be 
better." 

Princeton  head  coach  Bill 
Tlemey  liked  the  way  Trom- 
bino took  care  of  business  In 
the  win  over  the  Bulldogs. 

"That's  what  Peter  Trom- 
bino is  supposed  to  do,"  said 
Tlemey.  "He's  supposed  to 
get  his  points;  he's  supposed 
to  lead  the  team.  He's  sup- 
posed to  do  the  things  he  did 
today." 

In  Tlemey's  view,  the  fifth- 
ranked  Tigers,  who  have  now 
won  three  straight,  are  start- 
ing to  develop  some  confi- 
dence. 

"We  could  see  signs  of  that 
this  week  in  practice," 
asserted  Tlemey.  "We  had  a 
good  week;  it  was  very  low 
key,  there  wasn't  a  lot  of  emo- 
tion. The  guys  were  very  much 
on  their  game.  We  finally  got 
patient  on  offense." 

Still,  with  upsets  such  as 
Penn's  shocker  over  second- 
ranked  Cornell  last  week  dot- 
ting the  landscape  of  men's 
lacrosse  this  spring,  Tlemey 
knows  his  team  can't  get  satis- 
fied with  its  recent  good  form. 

"It's  just  a  crazy  year  and 
it's  getting  crazier  by  the  day," 
said  Tlemey,  whose  club  plays 
at  Syracuse  on  April  8  before 
hosting  Penn  on  April  1 1  in  a 
critical  Ivy  clash.  "It's  com- 
monplace right  now  to  have 
surprises;  it  puts  everybody  on 
edge.  This  isn't  a  team  good 
enough  to  win  a  game  by  just 
walking  on  the  field.  We  don't 
have  that  savvy  yet." 

Trombino,  for  his  part, 
believes  that  Princeton  is 
developing  that  kind  of  on- 
field  intelligence. 

"I  think  everyone  played 
smart  today,"  said  Trombino. 
"I  think  that  the  biggest  thing 
is  that  we  were  patient.  If  we 
would  run  our  offense  and  it 
wasn't  there,  we  would  run  it 
again  until  we  got  something. 
We  really  took  good  shots." 

With   Trombino   on   target, 

Princeton  has  a  good  shot  at 

doing    some    big    things    this 

season.  _ltl  ...

"We  look  at  things  one 
game  at  a  time;  when  we  hit 
the  field  Saturday  we  will  only 
be  thinking  about  the  first 
game,"  vowed  Barron,  who 
guided  Princeton  to  the  Ivy 
title  last  year,  marking  the 
third  time  In  four  years  that 
the  Tigers  have  taken  the 
league  crown.  "We  stress  tak- 
ing things  one  inning  at  a 
time,  if  we  play  the  way  we 

can,  we'll  be  fine."

An  Historic  Victorian... 
Where  the  parts  are  greater  than  the  whole! 


56  Bayard  Lane  &  6  Hodge  Road... designed  by  renowned  architect  A.  Page  Brown  &  built  in  1888,  this  landmark 
Victorian  dwelling  is  considered  one  of  the  finest  &  purest  shingle-style  houses  in  Central  New  Jersey.  Steeped  in 
local  history,  the  building  was  commissioned  by  William  Barryman  Scott,  noted  paleontologist  &  descendant  of 
Benjamin  Franklin.  The  exterior  of  this  Victorian  prize  has  recently  been  authentically  reshingled  &  the  chimneys 
rebuilt. 

Currently  divided  into  two  townhouses,  each  occupying  the  entire  three  floors,  the  parts  are  being  offered  separately; 
however,  they  may  be  purchased  together  for  a  lower  price. 

56  Bayard  Lane  with  4  bedrooms  &  2V2  baths,  has  2  fireplaces,  one  bedroom  with  a  private  balcony,  &  a  third-floor 
4th  bedroom  &  sitting  room.  Asking  price:  $975,000. 

6  Hodge  Road  also  with  4  bedrooms,  has  3V2  baths,  a  study  on  the  first  floor,  a  lovely  porch  with  pillars,  one  bedroom 
with  private  balcony  &  a  2-car  detached  garage.  Asking  price:  $1,150,000. 

These  gracious  townhouses  are  located  in  the  Borough  of  Princeton,  walking  distance  to  downtown,  McCarter 

Theatre,  &  the  Dinky  Station.  Buy  both  for  a  total  price  of  $1,975,000.

Hidden  on  Hibben! 


On  perhaps  the  most  picturesque  street  in  Princeton  Borough,  sits  this  proud  colonial  with  the 
authentic  Tudor  styling  of  a  bygone  era.  The  house  has  been  lovingly  owned  by  the  same  family 
for  almost  50  years,  and  now  awaits  the  next  lucky  owner.  A  formal  entry  with  coat  closet 
and  powder  room  greets  guests  through  the  front  door.  A  gracious  living  room  with  built-ins,  a 
picture  window,  and  a  wood-burning  fireplace  yearns  to  host  all  formal  affairs.  Nearby  access  to 
both  the  charming  screened  porch  on  one  side  and  the  formal  dining  room  on  the  other  allows 
an  accommodating  flow  for  entertaining,  as  well.  The  kitchen  is  large  and  includes  a  butlers 
pantry,  and  access  to  the  adjacent  family  and  laundry  rooms,  which  combine  to  create  a  sizeable 
space...  bring  your  imagination!  Upstairs  is  flexible,  too,  with  5/6  bedrooms  and  3  full  baths,  one 
of  which  has  been  tastefully  updated.  The  third  floor  is  walk-up  with  additional  bonus/ storage 
space.  Front  and  rear  staircases,  a  two-car  garage,  a  large  yard  with  Marquand  Park  beyond  and 
so  much  more.  Walk  to  town,  train,  McCarter,  and  the  University.  Its  all  here  and  ready  for  you 
—  a  rare  opportunity  indeed!  $1,595,000.

Starting  its  season  at  power- 
ful AJIentown  last  Saturday, 
the  Hun  School  softball  team 
suffered  from  a  case  of  open- 
ing day  jitters. 

Taking  a  2-1  lead  into  the 
bottom  of  the  fourth,  the  roof 
fell  in  on  the  Raiders  as  they 
gave  up  three  runs  in  that 
frame  and  four  more  in  the 
fifth  on  the  way  to  an  8-2 
setback. 

Hun  head  coach  Kathy 
Quirk  acknowledged  her  frus- 
tration as  she  assessed  her 
team's  opening  day  perfor- 
mance. "We  had  them  down 
2-1  and  then  we  fell  apart," 
said  Quirk,  whose  team  fell  to 
0-2  with  a  7-1  loss  to  Mont- 
gomery last  Monday.  "If  the 
other  team  hits  the  ball  that's 
one  thing  but  they  didn't  hit 
the  ball  out  of  the  infield  in 
the  fourth  inning.  We  didn't 
do  a  thing  offensively." 

The  veteran  coach,  who  is 
in  her  30th  year  at  the  helm 
of  the  Hun  program,  realizes 
that  her  team  is  a  work  in 
progress. 

"We're  going  to  struggle  a 
little,  I'm  working  on  putting 
together  the  right  combina- 
tion," said  Quirk,  who  guided 
the  Raiders  to  an  11  -7  record 
last  spring  and  yet  another 
appearance  in  the  state  Prep 
A  title  game.  "I  can't  seem  to 
find  my  perfect  nine.  I'm  look- 
ing for  my  juniors  and  seniors 
to  show  leadership." 

The  club's  pitching  situation 
is  emblematic  of  its  unsettled 
lineup.  Quirk  will  be  giving 
innings  to  sophomore  Carly 
Evans  and  junior  Nikki 
Caplinger. 
"They  will  be  splitting  time," 


said  Quirk,  referring  to  her 
pitchers.  "They  both  work 
hard  but  neither  of  them  is 
overpowering.  Girls  are  going 
to  hit  the  ball  so  we  have  to 
play  better  defense." 

Quirk  is  confident  that  her 
infield  is  up  to  the  task,  featur- 
ing such  veterans  as  sopho- 
more Morgan  Cawley  at  third 
base,  junior  Alyssa  Fares  at 
shortstop,  senior  Katrina 
O'Hara  at  second,  and  sopho- 
more Christine  Thomas  at 
first. 

The  Raider  outfield  is 
another  story.  "I've  moved 
some  infielders  to  the  out- 
field," said  Quirk.  "I'm  looking 
for  people  who  can  run  down 
the  ball  and  catch  It." 

While  the  Raiders'  slow  start 
is  tough  to  take  for  the  proud 
program  which  won  the  Prep 
A  crown  in  2004  and  has 
been  a  consistent  title  con- 
tender, Quirk  is  cautiously 
optimistic  that  things  can 
come  around. 

"It's  OK  to  start  out  like  this 
but  you  don't  want  to  end  this 
way,"  added  Quirk,  whose 
team  has  road  games  at  Blair 
on  April  5,  at  Hill  on  April  7 
and  at  Steinert  on  April  8 
before  hosting  Lawrenceville 
on  April  11.  "We  lost  some 
key  players  but  we  have  a 
nucleus  of  talent;  the  pieces 
are  there." 

The  key  to  getting  on  track, 
however,  may  be  a  matter  of 
attitude  more  than  talent.  "It's 
going  to  take  time  to  devel- 
op," said  Quirk.  "I  keep  telling 
them  that  1  believe  in  them  but 
I'm  not  sure  if  they  believe  in 
themselves  yet."

PDS  Girls9  Lax  Blessed  with  Athleticism; 
Plans  to  Feature  Run-and-Gun  Approach 


Jill  Thomas  will  tell  you  that 
her  Princeton  Day  School 
girls*  lacrosse  team  is  stocked 
with  outstanding  athletes. 

That  athleticism  will  come  in 
handy  as  Thomas  looks  to  fill 
holes  left  by  the  graduation  of 
top  scorer  Meg  Kerwin  and 
the  absence  this  semester  of 
junior  goalie  Maddie  Fergu- 
son, who  is  studying  in  Maine. 

"They  are  a  really  great 
group,"  said  head  coach  Tho- 
mas, who  is  in  her  ninth  year 
guiding  the  program.  "We  are 
really  fast  and  tremendous  at 
passing  and  catching." 

Thomas  is  hoping  that  her 
team's  overall  stick  skills  will 
help  fill  the  void  left  by  the 
departure  of  Kerwin. 

"Making  up  for  Meg  is 
tough,  one  player  can't  do  it," 
acknowledged  Thomas,  whose 
team  went  12-5  last  year,  win- 
ning the  Patriot  Conference 
title  and  advancing  to  the 
Prep  A  semis  where  it  lost  to 
Lawrenceville.  "We  have  a  lot 
of  people  who  can  score;  the 
twins  (juniors  Allie  and  Nina 
Crouse),  Keely  Langdon,  Katy 
Briody,  and  Mary  Peters  from 
the  defense." 

Junior  midfielder  Langdon 
could  well  emerge  as  the  Pan- 
thers' top  gun.  "We  ask  her  to 
do  a  lot,"  said  Thomas  of 
Langdon,  who  scored  two 
goals  last  Monday  as  PDS 
opened  its  season  with  an  8-6 


win  over  Notre  Dame.  "She  is 
playing  center  and  she  Is  all 
over  the  field  for  us." 


The  absence  of  Ferguson 
also  presents  a  major  chal- 
lenge for  Thomas.  She  will  be 
using  sophomore  Leah  Lefeb- 
vre  and  junior  Maria  Cannavo 
between  the  pipes. 

"They  both  can  play,"  said 
Thomas,  who  will  likely  rotate 
her  goalies  in  the  early  stages 
of  the  season  with  the  hope 
that  one  of  them  will  emerge 
as  the  top  option. 

The  abundance  of  athletic 
talent  should  help  PDS  firm 
up  the  defense  in  front  of  the 
goalie  as  Thomas  will  use 
senior  star  Peters  together 
with  classmates  Jess  Cellars 
and  Katy  Cara. 

In  Thomas'  view,  the  team's 
recent  preseason  trip  to  the 
American  Lacrosse  Camp  in 
St.  Petersburg,  Fla.  should 
help  it  get  into  sync. 

"It  is  always  a  great  place  to 
go,"  said  Thomas.  "We  played 
12  different  schools  including 
one  from  Canada.  There  were 
clinics  in  the  morning  and 
games  in  the  afternoon." 

Thomas  is  hoping  her  club 
can  put  on  a  clinic  offensively 
as  the  season  unfolds.  "We 
know  we  have  to  score  goals," 
asserted  Thomas.  "We  have  to 
put  the  ball  in  the  net.  We're 
going  to  need  goals  from  all

PRINCIPLES  OF  THE  BAHA'I  FAITH 

•  Elimination  of  racial,  ethnic,  and  class  prejudice  is  essential 
to  world  peace. 

•  Peace  is  not  possible  without  a  fundamental  change  in 
individual  hearts  and  minds. 

•  Peaceful  nations  are  built  from  peaceful  individuals  and 
communities. 

•  World  citizenship  starts  with  the  family. 

•  Children  are  our  best  hope  for  the  future  and  how  we 
raise  them  will  affect  the  future. 

•  Baha'is  are  followers  of  Baha'u'llah. 

The  Baha'is  of  Lawrenceville,  Princeton  and  Hamilton  Township 

conduct  classes  each  Sunday  for  children  and  adults  and  these 

are  open  to  people  of  all  ages  and  faiths.

REAL  ESTATE  AND  YOU 

By  Tod  Peyton 

HOW  REALTORS  HELP  HOMEBUYERS 

When  a  prospective  buyei  asks  a  real  estate  agent  to  help  them  find  a  home,  a  lot  of 
brainstorming  takes  place  to  establish  the  optimum  location,  size  and  price  range.  The 

realtor  acting  as  a  buyer's  agent  devotes  considerable  lime  and  effort  to  locating  the 
right  property,  preparing  the  Offer,  recommending  financing  options  and  negotiating 
the  deal. 

The  realtor  assists  the  buyer  in  all  aspects  of  the  complex  home  busing  process, 
beginning  with  an  interview  to  claril\  the  buyer's  preferences  How  mam  bedrooms 
and  bathrooms  are  required?  What  neighborhoods  is  the  buyer  most  interested  in? 
Would  a  'fixer-Upper"  be  interesting,  or  is  a  newer  home  the  onl\  option .'  What  are  the 
"must-have"  amenities ? 

After  evaluating  the  buyer's  needs,  the  realtor  targets  a  selection  of  local  listings 
in  the  appropriate  areas,  often  using  his  or  her  connections  with  other  local  real  estate 
professionals  to  discover  unique  listings  that  will  please  the  buyer.  The  buyer's  agent 
saves  their  clients  time  by  screening  properties  before  ottering  the  buyer  a  show  ing. 

Once  the  perfect  house  is  found,  the  realtor  helps  the  buyer  achieve  the  goal  of  home 
ownership. 

For  dependable  individual  advice  on  buying  or  selling  real  estate,  call  Tod 
Peyton,  Realtor  or  any  Peyton  Associate  at  921-1550.  Please  feel  free  to  stop  by  my 
office  at  343  Nassau  Street  in  Princeton.
